“King Kong” never played at the Roxy Theatre. You’ve confused it with the New Roxy, the smaller of two Radio City showcases, and best remembered as the Center Theatre and home to stage musicals and ice-skating revues.

If The New York Times really was your “source,” than the NYT was also incorrect.

This is correct, KING KONG played at the ‘Center’ aka ‘New Roxy’. A lawsuit forced the ‘New Roxy’ to change the name to “The Center Theater' later.
