A great neighborhood theatre that was opened by 1930 and was still open in 1950. It didn’t survive the TV invasion. It became an IBEW union hall. (Last time I visited the neighborhood, the façade of the building and marquee were still intact, but that was about 20 years ago.)
By 2015 it was in use as a church.

IBEW website doesn’t list any locations for Bloomfield.
1951 FDY lists address as 47 Dodd Street, which appears to be a continuation of Watsessing Avenue.
Operated from circa 1945 to circa 1955.
I used to live on Watsessing in the 1980s and I don’t remember anything looking like a theater there. I’d be interested to know which place it was. There was a magic store there we went to that maybe had theater like qualities but hard to remember those details
It appears the building that used to be the theatre is now a church called Chateau De Grace which has an address of 49 Dodd Street on the building.
Open at 49 Dodd Street by 1930 based on mailer images I’ve added. Possibly was originally located at 38 Myrtle Street prior to then per one image. That Myrtle address is beneath the Garden State Parkway today. Christlike Worship Center is the current tenant on Dodd Street.
