Built in 1920 as a vaudeville theatre, the Rivoli Theatre was designed by architects Bernard Dockendorff and A.E. Parkinson in a Spanish style in an ‘Atmospheric’ garden setting.
Now somewhat run-down, the Rivoli still operates as a movie theater. Thanksfully, its original interior architecture is still present and in good condition.
The Rivoli’s second screen is located in a former lounge.
Locals know the theater as being a great place to grab a movie, pizza, and a beverage.

The Rivoli was operated by Marcus Thesatres for many years.
I see that back in ‘04, right wingers were bent at the theatre posting a political sign. Chill out.
I’d attend a cinema even if they had a “Tea Party” sign out front. But then I support Free speech, even speech I disagree with.
