News About This Theater

Rialto Theatre

Located on the corner of Mission Street and Rolph Street, the Rialto Theatre was opened May 1 1916. It was closed soon after the Amazon Theatre (later Apollo Theatre) opened around the corner on Geneva Avenue in 1928.

In 2009, the building operates as the Billiard Palacade and family amusement arcade.

Dallasmovietheaters & Ken Roe’s claim that the Rialto opened in 1918 may be incorrect. A look at and read of the photo of the letter by Howard Sheehan posted here would put the opening of the Rialto on or about May 1, 1916.
