Uintah Theatre
Vernal, Utah
On 29 April 1912, the New Uintah Theatre opened in the former Elk Building, which had been remodeled “along the latest moving picture house lines, with sloping floor, soloists platform, etc.” The ticket office was outside, under a “blaze of rows of electric lights.” Patrons of nearby towns appreciated having hitching posts on the premises. The New Uintah closed sometime prior to 1932. The E. W. Davis furniture store occupied the building before it became a piano store called the Henderson-Barlett Music Company.

New Theatre Manager
Manti Messenger, 7 March 1913, page 1
Owing to C. M. Stringham going to California, the directors of the Theatre were compelled to secure another manager for the position and they have engaged W. M. Taylor for manager. Mr. Taylor should make good in the position. He has been closely connected with the management ever since the opening of the Theatre, is well qualified and we expect to see him succeed.
