Auditorium Theater

Opened by 1906 as part of a multi-purpose building (Central Fire Station) that included the City Hall offices, the police station and the theater on the site of today’s Hot Springs City Hall on Convention Boulevard. The Auditorium Theater was still open in 1926, but had closed by 1927.

Needs to be listed as demolished.

The address is wrong. This was at what was then 233-235 Benton, and is now 133 Convention.

The dates are also wrong. This appears on the April 1908 map, and one of the photos is supposedly a program from 1906. In 1901, the city hall was at the corner of Prospect and Exchange. By 1908, that had become a newspaper office, and is now gone.

The Auditorium was operating as a movie house by 1914, as it is listed in the American Motion Picture Directorythat year.
