No more ice shows, rodeos, circuses, Scottish tattoos or Italian spectacles. It sucks.
A good history of the Rhode Island Auditorium can be found here: http://artinruins.com/property/ri-auditorium/
The auditorium opened on February 18, 1926. It was demolished in 1989.
Over the decades I attended hockey games here (brought by our parish priest when I was an altar boy!). I also remember in the early 1960s a touring production of the Oberammergau Passion Play that was poorly done.
