Located in the Pineville suburb of Alexandria. The Hauber Theatre was opened May 29, 1936, and was independently operated by O.C. Hauber. In 1941, he designed and built the larger Streamline Moderne style Hauber Annex Theatre next door.
The Hauber Theatre was closed in 1946 and the adjacent Hauber Annex Theatre was renamed Hauber Theatre.
