History
Citrus Heights opened on December 26, 1979 in the Greenback Plaza with a Portrait Stage. The location's manager was Dave Wright[1]. The location possibly had the Animatronics one one wall. the location had a Cabaret Helen Henny[1]. In 1980, The location appeared in a Channel 40 local Sacramento news broadcast[2]. The Store would be chosen to be the filming location of Pizza Time Theatre's TV commercials along with Concord, CA (1975 Diamond Blvd)[2]. In 1981/1982, they received a minor remodel, removing some older decor for newer decor, and possibly replaced the exterior sign with the new logo. The location closed in 1984 (month and day unknown) for unknown reasons, It is unknown why Citrus Heights (Greenback) closed but one possible reason could be competition from the Showbiz Pizza Place on 6251 Sunrise Blvd which is literally 3 minutes away, which also opened in August 1983. That location later became Chuck E. Cheese's Pizza in around 1988 or 1989; when their show was converted to Chuck E.'s House. The stage did not last long as Chuck E.'s House would be converted into a Cyberamics Road Stage in around 1991 or 1992. Then it was converted into a 1-Stage in around 2015 until Janurary 2024 when it was removed for 2.0. Another possible reason is that it may be underperforming, a reason for many closures around this time. The site is now a Save on Cleaners.
