Theatre was segregated. Bessie Smith played to a mixed race audience in 1932. The floor was sloped and remained so when it was converted to retail.
Streetview is on the wrong street, but the building must still be there. Probably one of the storefronts covered with ugly sheet metal.
Put in the address listed above in Google Earth and the street view photos take you to a sad sad street. That might be the Dixie on the corner.
