The theatre was erected at a cost of $61,812. The heating plant cost $3,700.

A shame none of the links work anymore. If possible, it’s best to upload them to the photos section.

Hello!

I am writing a book for History Press about early theaters in Oklahoma. Can someone send me a photograph of the PETIT THEATRE at 300.dpi? FULL CREDIT WILL BE GIVEN. Thank you, Dr. John Wilson, Stillwater, Oklahoma

These 1939 photos prove you ain’t kidding about this being a fabulous theatre for a small town. That fancy horseshoe balcony and those elegant box seats hint that the Pettit had opera house roots. Type in word “pettit” to see exterior & interior shots.

I’ve heard the grits in Hominy are first rate.
