Opened late March 1917
Opened in 1907 as a Silent movie house . Moved around 1914 around the corner north to third street . Closed in 1920 .
Sadly this building was lost in the great 3 block Kewanee fire in 1942 .
This Theater replaced the McCLURE Opera house which also was destroyed via fire on the same basic site turn of the century .
Building was destroyed in a Fire September 1933 .
Theater was actually located on the EAST SIDE of Main street . Around 108 North main . Just NORTH of the Redmen Building [Now Furniture country Building ] .
