This story, towards the end, talks about the Roxy; apparently parts of it got recycled at another location: View link

What a great article! When I lived in Knoxville in the 70’s, I could tell Market Square was just a ghost of what it had once been, and always wondered what it had been like earlier. I would love to see a photo of the Roxy!

Amazing! Who would have thought that live burlesque would have survived in a small market like Knoxville through 1947? Have any photos ever surfaced of the Roxy? Has anyone asked Marshall Andy – Knoxville’s king and guru of everything associated with Hollywood Westerns?
