The Gem Theatre was opened prior to 1926. Around 1932/1933 it was renamed Granada Theatre. Allen Gardner had a mobile van to advertise the theatre so that citizens always knew the feature. By 1935 when Gardner sold the 250-seat theatre, it was updated and renamed the Stuart Theatre becoming a 166-seat venue. The Stuart Theatre was still open in 1957.
When the Stuart Theatre closed, residents had to drive around 30 miles to the nearest theatre until a new all-digital, all-volunteer venue the Murphy Theatre & Media Center opened in 2013.
