My dad watched serials at this theater in the 1930’s. He said the owner was gay, and closed or sold the theater after getting badly beaten up by a couple of sailors during the war (Norman had a Naval Air Station at the time).

Recent photos from the web site Roadside Oklahoma reveal that the Oklahoma Theatre was installed inside a former bank structure. Seems the theatre did no better than the bank did,

Casual inspection of 1940s photos reveal that the actual name was Oklahoma Theatre, not Oklahoman.
