The Broncho Theatre opened March 20, 1946 for Raphen Cross replacing the town’s earlier theatre, the Bennington Theatre (Liberty Theatre in the silent era) that had closed in December of 1941. A year later, James E. Davis took on the Broncho changing its name to the Rialto Theatre. It appears to have gone out of business in 1950. Because the town’s population dropped a precipitous 30% that year to just about 360 citizens, the closure seems like a sound business decision.
