The Grand Theatre launched September 23, 1909 with short films from Pathé, Selig and Biograph as well as vaudeville acts interspersed. Oklahoma Governor Charles N. Haskell and Muskogee Mayor McGarr were on hand. It converted to sound films and had a 60-year lifecycle.

An article about Muskogee’s movie theaters in the summer, 2000, issue of 3 Rivers Historian, published by the Three Rivers Museum, has a small photo of the Grand Theatre with the caption reading “The Grand, built in 1904, served Muskogee’s black community.”

Here is a Google Documents Quick View of the issue with the article.
