The Ramona Theatre is listed on the National Register of Historic Theatres. It opened in 1929 and is done in a Spanish Colonial style. The architect was George Kadant. It has been fully restored by volunteers and the Frederick Arts Council. Today it presents live performances by Community Players and other outside entertainment.

According to statistics listed on Frederick, Oklahoma web sites, Architect George KADANE designed the beautiful Ramona Theater. The plush auditorium was atmospheric with electronic twinkling stars and Brenograph rolling clouds illuminating a midnight blue plaster sky. Listed as operating continuousely from 1925-1949, the Ramona did operate after 1949, but not on a regular basis.
There is a complete history and good images of the Ramona which can be pulled up on Frederick, Oklahoma web pages- - -
