Mr. and Mrs. Lloyd Martin began construction of the Joy Theatre in November of 1945. War shortages delayed its opening until August 8, 1946. The Martins continued operating the Palace Theatre making Coweta a two-theatre town - interesting for a town of just under 1,500 residents. The Palace folded on Thanksgiving of 1948. O.R. Beasley took on the Joy and gave it a new sound system in 1964. The Joy closed but it reopened for a period as the Coweta Theatre and appears to have since closed.
