The Ritz Theatre was in Bainbridge, Georgia, before the Martin Theater.

 The late Roy F. Martin (Columbus, Ga,) came to Bainbridge in 1933. He leased the old Flint River Store n Broad Street, practically demolished it, built and opened the Ritz Theatre, Opening date: December 11, 1933.
                

The Ritz could seat approximately 1200 people. Opening night program was a movie plus “Harry Shannon’s Revue” (on stage).
