Note
A regular -s plural whose spelling is the American one; British English writes theatres. The plural fits every countable use: buildings, cinemas, operating and lecture rooms, and the military sense, as in theaters of war. When theater means the art or the profession, it stays uncountable. Someone works in theater, not in theaters, and the plural there would shift the meaning to buildings.
