Thank you for your response. I actually stumbled across this article
 the day after I put out the call - such is the way of research I guess.
So far, it seems though that
in SF area there were no theaters for exhibition
 but that many were shown at community centers and education
facilities.

I appreciate your taking the time,
thank you,
kirsten
