The Princess Theatre opened its doors in September 1915 and was located inside the Blaine building. The theater was renamed three times in its history. First it was renamed the Piedmont Theatre in Spring 1932, then it was renamed the Jefferis Theatre on August 28, 1940, and finally it was renamed the Melinda Theatre on January 1, 1958.

The theater closed in 1961 and the former theater became an office.

Boxoffice, Oct. 19, 1940: “Piedmont - A. B. Jefferis is now operating his new 400-seater.”

I believe this theatre was actually the Jefferis theatre. The theatre was named after its owner A. B. Jefferis.
