Place of Barrington Square Theater.
Opening on December 14, 1979 at the Barrington Square shopping center on Higgins Road, this theater was originally part of the AMC Theaters chain. It was the second six-screen theater to open in the Chicagoland area after the Ogden 6 Theaters in Naperville. The smallest theater sat 259 people and the largest 375. This theater stayed in business 20 plus years but when a new 30 screen theater opened in neighboring South Barrington in 2000, it spelled the end for the Barrington Square. The theater closed in October and was torn down a few months later as part of a redesign of the entire shopping center.
