Thomas W. Lamb, a prolific theatre architect, designed the 2,963 -seat cinema for the Mastbaum chain of theatres. The theatre was named for Stanley, one of the Mastbaum brothers. Its design motif is called "Mexican Baroque" because of its unique blend of styles. The terra cotta and tiled mosaic exterior shows the Mexican influence, the interior is lavish gold-leaf baroque.
