Dan,
I am the grand-daughter of Jesse Shannon. My dad, Tony Shannon, is Jesse’s youngest son. Dad has a lot of info on the history of the theater and would love to talk with you if this is the info you want. It sounds like you want info more on the business end, though. Dad would be happy to talk to you about the history. He said you could ask Paul Ring (a Woodsfield barber) to give you his phone number. Or I could get you two connected. Please email me at with “Jesse Shannon’s theater” in the subject line if interested in contacting Tony.
Bridget
