A theater opened in 1911 that was called the Pantages theater and was very popular. It is still prominant in SF though it now has another name. Could anyone tell me what the current name is?

There was a " PANTAGES THEATER ", located in Fairbanks, Alaska ; in 1967 ALASKALAND was constructed to commemerate the 1967 ALASKA BICENTENIAL , they relocated old wooded structures saved from destruction from developement...any connection to ALEXANDER ? The building is in sad shape and seldom used anymore, the COMPETITION across the street at THE PALACE SALOON is racking in all the $$$ from tourists and the City Management of Alaskaland is in dire need of restucturing!!! As a child I use to go to performances by local artists performing inside the Pantages Theater, Some Things Never Change.
