Vogue Theatre
Vernal, Utah
The Vernal Amusement and Improvement Company opened the Vogue Theatre on 29 December 1916, with Mary Pickford starring in Poor Little Peppina. The Vogue was described as “the most modern moving picture show house in the Basin,” boasting features “right up to the minute.” The 425-seat theater had a balcony and a 17-instrument Wurlizter Plan Orchestra organ. The original name intended for the theater was “Princess,” but was changed to the “Vogue” after the management held a contest to find “the most catching name, with the least number of letters.” The Vogue Theatre closed in 1960 and was remodeled for use as the Vernal Drug Company.

[Star Theater Remodeled by Cameron & Norton]
Panguitch Progress, 19 September 1913, page 1
The Star Theater is being remodeled and made very attractive with slanting floor, opera chairs, and other new features. Twenty feet is being added to its length.
The shows that Messers Cameron & Norton gives are fine, interesting, and moral. It is well attended, often crowded.
