Lawrence L. Pruitt opened the New Legion Theatre on March 4, 1949 with “Belle Star’s Daughter” supported by the Three Stooges short “Three Fiddlers” and cartoon. The previous location of the Legion Theatre closed on February 28, 1949 with “Apartment for Peggy.” Jerry Martin closed thea theatre on November 12, 1962 with Susan Hayward in “Back Street” ending the venue’s run.
Address: 112 Main St.reet, Steelville, Mo 65565. This theatre goes back to the 1920’s when it was called the Gem Theatre, by 1933 it was known as the Melba Theatre and finally the Legion Theatre in 1937. Should have aka’s of Gem Theatre & Melba Theatre.
