I knew a Mr. Frank Sandor, who was the operator (and owner?) of the Kayton before it closed. I remember going there as I knew Mr. Sandor, and the theater had a balcony.
Joe,
Any pictures of the Kayton? I’d love to see some. My barber back home has an original playbill for the Kayton from the 60s/70s!

The Kayton at Montgomery was in operation prior to 1946, when its operators, Leonard T. Houghton of Franklin, Pennsylvania, and Paul V. McKay of Montgomery, opened another Kayton Theatre in Franklin. The Kayton Amusement Company also operated the Orpheum Theatre in Montgomery during this period.
There had also been a Kayton Theatre at Grove City, Pennsylvania, operating at least as early as 1938, but it had been sold in early 1946 and renamed the Lee Theatre by its new owners.
