The Majestic Theatre was the second photoplay theatre of the town of Alto. The Empire Theatre had launched September 25, 1912 and had a run of just under two years. Berryman and Watters created the Majestic in a newly-built row of businesses in downtown Alto within the Berrryman building on Busy Bee Avenue launching in 1914. The theatre got new operator in Joe Stephano in 1931 and closed in 1932. It reopened with new sound on film technology in 1934 and closed for good that year. The Alto Theatre was built and became the town’s main theatre.

There were two Majestics. The Empire became the Majestic and after the Berryman building fire, they built another Majestic. I’ll post the first Majestic pictures here if someone with the power could make a Majestic II page please so I can share those pics too.
