The Joy Theatre was opened on June 5, 1915. In 1916, Theodore Coleman took over the the Joy Theatre. The silent era theatre ended after five years of operation closing with the film, “What Every Woman Learns” on July 30, 1920. Coleman launched the American Theatre two days later in 1920 which effectively ended the Joy.
