The venue was called the Ideal Theatre and prior was the Dry Ridge Opera House. It gave away a brand new Ford Sedan in a 1921 contest and its de facto concession stand was the Clements Confectionery next door. The 1927 fire that took out ten buildings in downtown started at the dry cleaner, spread to the wood framed buildings taking out the Carlsbad Hotel, then the theatre next door along with the Clements Confectionery, the post office, and others.
