Robert Hudson sold the Palace and Richmond theaters to local businessman Ora Monger on April 1, 1926. A month earlier Hudson sold his stock in the Tivoli Theater Corporation to the Circle Theater Company which proceeded to erect the Uptown Theater in Indianapolis. In July 1926 Hudson announced plans to build a new theater in Richmond, Ind. He also agreed to lease a new $200,000 neighborhood theater to be erected at Dearborn and Tenth in Indianapolis for twenty years. (This became Universal’s Rivoli Theatre.)
Robert Hudson owned the Palace Theatre. He later operated the Richmond Theatre (nee Theatorium) and several other theaters. In February 1920 Hudson announced that the Palace would close for a few weeks for a thorough remodel.
