The Royal Theatre opened its doors on September 8, 1933 with Lionel Barrymore in “Strangers Return” along with an unnamed Little Rascals short, and was first managed by L.L. Shaw Jr.

Fire insurance maps show theatres at 233 E. Main & 238 E. Main. The 238 location is labeled as a drug store circa 1928 but shows the stage and scenery at the rear of the structure. In 1918 it was labeled Opera House. The 233 location was labeled as a theatre in 1928. The entire south side of Main St. looks to have been leveled.

Open ~1940-~1955? Can anyone verify the exact dates?

Sure could use an address, more info and photos.
