I am wondering why this theatre is listed as an atmospheric with a ceiling of gold leaf and a central chandelier.It does not sound like a true atmospheric,however the theatre may have atmosphere.There are other theatres on the atmospheric list which probably should’t be there,which tends to make it confusing.I am researching and compiling a list of atmospherics and have found about 146 so far,which I suspect has only scratched the surface,as John Eberson probably designed that many himself.

there are two photos of the theatre,one exterior and one interior, on the website http://richmondthenandnow.com and it was demolished in the 1990’s.

The style is listed as Italian Renaissance however it is an atmospheric theatre.There are some excellent photos at www.wisconsinhistory.org
