The Olive Theatre first appears in the FDY’s 1931 edition, which means a likely 1930 opening. The house is mentioned in the September 14, 1935 issue of Universal Weekly with the name of the manager, Ed Lewis. The Olive had been receiving Universal’s film service for five years, also indicating a 1930 opening.
The Olive Theatre was at the north end of a short row of stores on the west side of the 100 block of Barnes Avenue (Highway 395.) The entire row has been demolished. The address of the theater would probably have been approximately 105 N. Barnes Avenue.
