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.

David Maule has begun the repairing of the Lyceum theater which was damaged by a fire a short time ago. It will cost something over $1,000 to place the playhouse in as good condition as it was before the fire. Carpenters and painters are pushing the repair work and it will not be many days before the popular house is again ready for business.
