William Hamilton and William D. Grumbley reopened the theatre on January 17, 1964. On Christmas, 1,000 patrons showed up for the Theatrofilm concert, “The T.A.M.I. Show.” Unfortunately, a riot caused by a knife wielding teenager made the December 25, 1964 showing the final for the Michigan Theatre.
Closed 1965.
Opened on June 28th, 1936. Grand opening ad posted.
An article about concrete theater construction, in Boxoffice of April 2, 1949, included an interior photo of the Michigan Theatre, though I don’t find the house mentioned in the article itself. The style was Art Deco. The photo caption attributes the design to the Dearborn architectural firm Bennett & Straight.
