Joe Vogel: The only theatre that would make sense is the Royal. I don’t know of any Palace in Olneyville. There were short-lived storefront operations, most of which had disappeared by that time.

The film dates to 1919.

I think this report gets the seating capacity and theatre condition egregiously wrong.
