Orpheum is named as a filming location in the Wikipedia articles of 3 productions, in the section each entry below links back to. No Wikidata filming statement points here yet, so this page says plainly which kind of evidence it rests on.
“Therefore, filming relocated to Squamish, but a few scenes were shot in the Orpheum Theater with the Vancouver police covering all the entrances of the theater.”
Filmed here, per Wikipedia
Productions whose English Wikipedia article names Orpheum as somewhere it was shot, with no matching statement on Wikidata. Weaker evidence than a Wikidata statement, and labelled as what it is, each production’s own page links the exact section the claim comes from.

The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus
2009
“The fantasy scenes were filmed at Bridge Studios in Burnaby, while the charity gala occurs at the Orpheum Theatre, and the glass-walled "mall" is the Central Branch of the Vancouver Public Library, the curved arcade being the library's entrance foyer.” Wikipedia
-
The Changeling
1980
“Additional photography occurred at the Orpheum Theatre in Vancouver.” Wikipedia
Named here by Orpheum’s own Wikipedia article
Productions this page’s own Wikipedia article says were shot at Orpheum, where neither Wikidata nor the production’s own article records it. That is the weakest evidence on this atlas, so these get no pin on the map and stay out of the downloads — the sentence is quoted in full below each one so you can judge it.

Fringe 2008–2013
“The theatre and its neon sign have been used as a key location in several episodes of the science-fiction series Battlestar Galactica and Fringe, as well as Highlander: The Series.” Wikipedia
