The Ritz Theatre opened with 300 seats on June 2, 1937 by Mr. and Mrs. Hugh Smith with Gene Autry in “Rootin' Tootin' Rhythm.” Regular screenings ended at the end of a 20-year lease on April 22, 1957 with “Giant” and permanently closed after a special holiday screening on December 4, 1957. The Ritz was retrofitted for a retail store, a third location for Kimberlee’s Dollar Saver in March of 1958.
