Teatro Alamo

Alamo, Texas is located at the Southern tip of Texas bordering Mexico. George Holdridge opened the Alamo Theatre in 1928 to service a largely Hispanic clientele. Holdridge closed the Alamo Theatre in 1931 without converting to sound.

A.R. Pena equipped the venue for talkies in 1933 at its reopening and he was associated with the venue for at least two decades operating mainly with Spanish language films as Teatro Alamo from 1938. Late in 1940, the town also had the creation of its first ozoner in the Rio Grand Valley Drive-In Theatre. Three petitions to build a new Alamo Theatre were denied after the War. As a result, Teatro Alamo was still operating in the 1950’s.
