The theater was in operation by June 1926. My grandmother performed a vaudeville show there against the silent film “Beverly of Graustart” June 21-23, 1926.

Built by Famous Players in the late 20’s — this theatre was “pooled” with the Lyric Theatre a larger theatre in Kitchener to eliminate competition and increase the profits. This theatre was pooled with Premier Operating’s Mr. Herb Allen who had the right to book and date the films for both theatres!!
