The October 13, 1956, issue of Boxoffice Magazine ran an item about the 50th anniversary of the Bohemia Theatre. The item included the information that the Roxy was next door to the Bohemia, and had been built by the Cleveland Amusement Company, operators of the Bohemia, but that it had been a short-lived operation. As far as I’ve been able to determine, the Roxy’s operation was confined to some part of the 1930s.
Perhaps a victim of the Depression, or competition from the Bohemia. Was Cleveland large enough then to support two theaters?
Ken, with a population of better than 35,000 they could support more than just one theatre. They have had a number of theatres in Cleveland. They now have a Premier 12 Screen.
