The Mike Rivest Ultimate Theatre Guide has the Barnes Theatre operating from 1935 through 1940. Anyone know what happened after that?
On a Bronx message board that I came across, people were talking about an Allerton Theater that was located at 740 Allerton Ave in the Bronx. They claim it was operating into the 1970’s. I don’t know if that is the true name of the theater or if it has any relationship to the Barnes Theater. I just thought that I would mention it. If the Allerton isn’t the Barnes Theater, then we might have another theater to add.
I have just added the Allerton Theatre, its location is very close to what’s given here for the Barnes Theatre, but maps out a couple of blocks away from Barnes Ave.
I don’t have any record of a Barnes Theatre before 1930 nor after 1941 and unfortunately I don’t have any F.D.Y. for 1931 through 1940 to check and see if both the Allerton and the Barnes are listed.
The Allerton Theatre opened in 1927 and I have it listed with that name through to 1957 in F.D.Y. that I have.
