It was known to open as early as 1913 as the Dreamland Theatre. In the late-1920’s or early-1930’s it was owned by Joseph Walters who changed the name to the City Theatre. Sometime in 1935 Fred Powell bought the City Theatre, in 1937 he built a new theatre and named the City Theatre the Powell Theatre. I don’t know the time frame but it later became the Chester Little Theatre for live performances.

1986 photo of the Powell Theatre. In this photo it looks like it needs some attention to the exterior.
