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.

Moral pollution kept at bay
Deseret News, 15 September 1999, page A12
We recently saw the movie "The Winslow Boy" at the Avalon Theater. We thoroughly enjoyed the movie. We found the story compelling and the acting believable. We also observed nothing objectionable in the movie, which can be said about very few movies today.
We wish to thank the Avalon Theater for providing movies that are entertaining without the moral pollution that infests most of the entertainment media.
