In 1976, four partners (Lynne Cohen, Mary Hether, Anne Lewis and Richard Szanyi) opened the first movie theater on the site, the Collective Fantasy Cinema. In 1983 Brent Kliewer bought the theater, remodeled it, and renamed it the Jean Cocteau Cinema (for the famed French novelist and filmmaker). The theatre closed in 2006 before being purchased and renovated by Martin in 2013.[3][4]
