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.

The Orpheum
Beaver City Press, 10 June 1910, page 1
The opening of the Orpheum moving picture show at the Jones hall last Friday night proved an agreeable surprise to Beaver's show patrons. The program was varied and delightful and the pictures were excellent. The songs by Miss Neilson have been secured permanently and the management states that a high standard in pictures and music will be maintained. Judging by the shows given this week they mean what they say.
The Jones hall has been fitted up to be an attractive amusement hall and a late type picture machine installed. Two performances are given each evening and the program is changed three times a week.
