Elite Theatre

The Salinas Index Journal reported the opening of the Elite Theatre on May 5, 1908, in the Schroeder Building.

“A highly refined amusement place for ladies, children and gentlemen. Admission 10 Cents”. The opening attractions were three great picture plays, which included “The King of the Cannibal Islands”, labeled ‘absurd comedy'.

On April 25, 1912, the Journal reported that W.B Martin’s Elite Theatre would be opening as La Petite Theatre. From April to August 1915 an ad appeared in the Journal offering the former Elite Theatre for rent. “Will be altered to suit tenant”.
