In 1957 Nathan Taylor created the first theatre – the Elgin Theatre in Ottawa – that was caapble of showing two different films at the same time. Taylor is credited as being the inventor of the multiplex. Fast forward to April 19, 1979, when Cineplex Odeon Corporation was founded by Garth Drabinsky and Taylor. The name is a merger of the words “cinema” and “complex.” The doors to the first location opened in Canada at Toronto’s Eaton Centre. This 18-screen multiplex theatre earned them a spot in the Guinness Book of World Records as the world’s largest theatre. The business gained momentum and opened many more locations across Canada, as well as in the United States and Europe.
Cineplex Odeon is now operated by Cineplex Entertainment in Canada and AMC Theatres in the United States. Today, Cineplex Entertainment operates over 170 theatres across all 10 Canadian provinces with over 1,600 screens. It is headquartered in Toronto, Ontario.
