The Trio Theatre opened its doors on March 23, 1918 with Ethel Clayton in “Souls Adrift” along with an unnamed two-reel comedy. It was originally managed by T.F. Houx and A.D. Hanners. Movies ended in 1933, but managed to continue operating as a special events house throughout the remainder of the 1930s.
