Roosevelt Twin Theatre
Roosevelt, Utah
George H. Harrison and R. Howard Harrison opened the $40,000 Roosevelt Theatre on Valentine's Day, 14 February 1942, with Shirley Temple in Kathleen. The “modern up-to-the minute motion picture theatre” was described as “new, beautiful, and elaborately equipped.” The interior color scheme was peach, green, and beige, with red velour curtains and drapes. The 500 seats in the auditorium were “arranged on a slight arc so that every seat directly faces the screen.” The stage was large and had floodlights, so the theater could “accommodate many types of entertainment” and serve as “a community playhouse as well as a motion picture theatre.”

Notice to Public and all Concerned.
Davis County Clipper, 20 December 1901, page 1
After due consideration of all the facts in the premises, the directors of the Peoples Opera House & Mercantile Co. have decided to make a voluntary assignment of their business for the benefit of their creditors; believing that it will be for the best interests of both creditors and stockholders to turn the business over to a friend knowing that we have sufficient assets to cover all liabilities and save something for the original stockholders, which might not be possible in case of a forced assignment.
