This was the second theatre to use the name ROYAL in Atlantic City, the first opened on June 18, 1910 at the corner of Kentucky & Atlantic. It was initially a live performance venue known as Myers Music Hall, then the Empire, before being named Theatre Royal on June 18, 1910. On December 24, 1925 it became known as the Aldine. The Aldine closed at the end of 1933 and was sold at a sheriff’s auction.
