For some reason, the Sunset didn’t appear in the 1949-50 Theatre Catalog. It was in the 1952 edition (capacity 288) and in 1955-56 (capacity 350), both times with J. Frank Jacobs.

The 1959-63 IMPAs had capacity at 288, “Waxman Circuit”. The first change I see is the 1982 edition with a capacity of 300, listed with “D. White”. It was D again in 1984, but by 1986, it changed to “J. White”.
