Manager W.F. Wallace and Proprietor H.B. Weller opened the Kahuluki Theater on May 17, 1918 with Geraldine Farrar in “The Woman God Forgot” featuring an original capacity of 750 seats and an original installation of a nitro-silver patent sheet screen. The theater was erected by the Kahuluki Railroad Company with an estimate $20,000, and it replaced the short-lived Lyceum Theater (which has the same amount of seats) after the Lyceum was destroyed by a fire caused by the projector during a packed showing of Jack Pickford’s “Freckles” on November 17, 1917. The fire caused the former Lyceum Theater to close after a little over five years of operation.
It was still open in the early-1960s, but its closing date was not known at this time.
