William Martin commented about Murphy Theatre on Oct 21, 2016 at 7:50 pm

I toured the Murphy Theatre in 1967 while with my father who was an assistant manager for the Pitt’s Theatre chain. The theatre had been used for storage and the front portion had been turned into a store front. The projection room for the theatre was accessible only by a ladder and film reels had to be sent up by rope and pulley.
