In 1913 it could seat 430, with a stage that could accomodate a company of 15 to 20, with a box either side and plaster of paris decorations. In the basement there was a heating plant under the stage and it was being managed at that time by Messrs. Ballenger and Ballenger.

1913 photograph, when it was showing films of the horrendous floods and tornados that had recently occurred in Ohio etc http://flic.kr/p/9GUFKi

It probably is; I was not able to find out much more than what is in the above article from any other online source.
