The Latchis chain opened the Windsor Theatre’s doors on November 1, 1936 with Clark Gable in “Cain And Mabel” (unknown if extras added), and was first managed by Charles Ross who also operated the Strand Theatre there as well.

Some original installations featured in the Windsor Theatre include blue and gold colored walls with golden draperies and stuccos, a blue-painted ceiling, RCA sound, French-styled entrance doors, a fireproof projection booth, and a balcony containing two combination seats.

The Windsor Theatre closed in 1962.

I believe that later the Windsor became part of the Affiliated Theatres circuit of Boston.
