The Majestic dates back to at least 1914 when it competed with the Isis Theatre and the Best Theatre. It would become one of the first theatres in the Robb & Rowley circuit, R&R decided to focus on its new Palace in 1927 and its remodeled Best Theatre turned Ritz allowing the Majestic to pass into independent operation.

The April 29, 1930, issue of Motion Picture Times said that B.A. Lawrence had been operating the Majestic Theatre at Hillsboro for several years. The independent house was at this time one of three theaters in the town, the other two being the Ritz and the Texas, operated by the Robb & Rowley circuit.

A small photo of the entrance to the Majestic, decorated for Independence Day, appeared in the July 21, 1928, issue of Motion Picture Times.
