I was also anxious to see if anyone knows when the Rodeo theatre first opened and finally closed from showing movies?

I spent many hours from the early to late fifties watching all the latest movies at the Rodeo theatre, I was there back in the late 90’s I believe and the auditorium sure looked smaller than it did during the 50’s

I believe the status should be changed to “Closed”. This photo is from April 2011.
