City records show a Colonial Theatre in 1910. It is listed as the Richard Theatre in 1912-1913. Listed as the Colonial Theater again in 1914. Between 1915 and 1918 it is listed as the Beauty Theatre.

It is believed to have been a storefront theatre as opposed to a free standing building. No photographs have been located to date. A 34-story 1960’s building with an address 100 N. Main Street now sits on the site.
