The Rodeo Theater did not close in 1953. My father, Choc Hudson, bought the theater that year and ran it until around 1968.
The next owner went out of business within a year.

Unless it soldiered on as a purely neighborhood theater with no newspaper advertising, the Rodeo’s earlier incarnation closed on Saturday, January 31, 1953, with Sterling Hayden in HELLGATE and radio comedienne Judy Canova in THE WAC FROM WALLA WALLA. [Daily Oklahoman]

Here are some recent photos of the Rodeo Opry. The address on the building is 2221 Agnew.

Perhaps the map feature does pinpoint the correct address listed here. Could it be that the Rodeo Theatre address on this site was given incorrectly?

If one uses the map feature at the top of this page, be advised the satellite image pinpoints the Rodeo Theater three blocks West of its actual location. Also on the same block can be seen the former Blue Moon Theater, a few doors East of the Rodeo.

Did the new owners retain those wonderful abstract rodeo cowboy auditorium wall murals?

This one’s down on Agnew St in Cowtown. It sits across the street from Langston’s in OKC, if that helps. I don’t know the address.
