Thanks for the note - I forgot to mention that he staged early rock and roll shows to good effect.

Here’s an interesting tidbit from the December 24, 1953 issue of Boxoffice: “We have been informed that Dave Smason, owner-manager of the Vic Theatre, Karnes City, is anxious to start a stage show policy at his house.” Given that the house ran Spanish language movies, I would imagine that the stage shows were in Spanish as well, perhaps featuring some of the Mexican vaudeville acts which often toured the southwest into the 1960s.
