Playhouse Theatre

A seven-piece orchestra supplied the music for the silent pictures flickering on the Patio screen. The “house band” also performed for concert nights, traveling vaudeville shows and other special events.

“High Class Motion Pictures! Centuria’s Celebrated Orchestra!” read a Patio advertisement.

In that first year, an adjustable steel roof was added, allowing for closed-ceiling screenings when necessary, and alternately to cool patrons in those steamy days before air conditioning.
