50sSNIPES commented about Roxy Theatre on Feb 12, 2021 at 1:25 pm

I Am 99.99% Sure That The Roxy Was Once Known As The Star Theatre Until December 31, 1936 When It Remodeled And Changed Its Name To The Roxy. If It Is Known As The Star, Then It Opened On April 24, 1916 With “The Diamond From The Sky”; But It Was Necessary If This Theater Was Actually Once Known As The “Star”.
