Opened on March 11, 1929, the Palace Theatre originally had a seating capacity of 879. Around 1950 it was renamed Park Theatre which closed as a movie theatre around 1955.

Today, this small theatre has been renovated for stage shows. The theatre’s facade was restored around 2000.

Famous Players owned this theatre during its cinema days, per Mike Rivest’s site. It first ran as the Palace until about 1950, then was renamed the Park and ran under that name until it closed around 1985.
