The Nusho was one of four Mangum theaters that changed hands in 1930, according to this item in the June 2 issue of The Film Daily:
The Empress Theatre had been around since at least 1916. Mangum had a lot of theater names in the 1910s and 1920s. I’ve found references to the Electric and Lyric (1910), the New Dime on N. Oklahoma Avenue (1914), the Woodrow (at least 1914 into the early 1920s), the Happy Hour, opened October 2, 1915, on the north side of the square, The Yale (1915), the Blue Bird (late 1910s), and the Strand, opened September 27, 1922, at the southwest corner of the square. There might also have been houses called the Palace, the Star, and the Majestic, but the references to them I’ve found are a bit vague.The actual opening date is March 5, 1925 with “The Narrow Street” (Unknown if extras added).
