This theater failed very quickly. It was gone by January 1910, when the map shows dry goods & clothing sold here (the 1905 map shows a restaurant & pool hall here). This is not a dance studio (that is at 112). This portion of the building uses a 116 address now, and seems to be either vacant or a residence.
The theater was located in the western storefront of the McLaughlin Building, an attractive two story Victorian commercial block constructed between 1896 and 1902. The building is in excellent condition today, although sadly someone has been watching too much HGTV and has painted all the trim and storefronts black.
