The Datong Theater (Chinese: 大同戲院; pinyin: Dàtóng Xìyuàn) is a former movie theater in Datong Borough, Taitung City, Taitung County, Taiwan.
History
The theater was opened in 1956 and became the entertainment center for the residents in the 1960s and 1970s. In the 1980s when televisions gained popularity among Taiwanese, many movie theaters closed down but Datong Theater remained in the business. However, fire destroyed the building in 2009.[1]
