The Sunshine Theater launched in September of 1909. Operator Harry Kemp apparently wanted to murder the 16-year old ticket taker and end his life in what was some form of tryst. Kemp was successful in ending his life but only wounded the female ticket taker. A new operator renamed the venue but the next operator converted it back to the Sunshine Theater. It closed permanently on January 1, 1916.
