Opened on September 17, 1933 with Phil Harris in “Melody Cruise” along with an unnamed Silly Symphony, unnamed comedy, and Paramount News. There is also an earlier Rose Theatre at a different location.

Correction: This first softly opened on January 18, 1974 with “American Graffiti”, with the official grand opening happening on January 25, 1974 with “The Way We Were”.
