Rio Theatre

The Cambridge Theatre was opened by 1924. The Film Daily Yearbook of 1941 lists listed the Cambridge Theatre with 240 seats. Still the same in 1943. It was damaged by a projection room fire in 1945 and when it reopened later that year it had been renamed Rio Theatre.

The theatre can be seen in downtown Cambridge, next to the medical clinic, with its still-recognizable exterior.

Opened as early as 1924. Once partially destroyed by a fire caused by projection on May 26, 1945. The operator of the theater suffered burns, but otherwise no other injuries were reported. Later changed its name to the Rio Theatre.
