The theatre opened February 1, 1918 with the premiere of The Silent Man accompanied by a thirty-piece orchestra. Guests included Douglas Fairbanks, Sr., Mary Pickford, and Charlie Chaplin. It reopened for performances and special events in 2008, after a year-long refurbishment, and now serves as an event and filming location.
