There was a “Worcester Theatre” at 20 Exchange Street listed in the 1916 city directory (posted by Joe Vogel on the Family Th. page). This must have been a predecessor whose name was no longer in use when this later theatre was built. There is no Worcester Th. listed in the 1927 Film Daily Yearbook but they do mention that there were 8 movie theaters planned for Worcester at that time. This must have been one of them.
