Correction: The TRAIL THEATER was built by my Father Edward N. Claughton in the mid 1940s and was one of a chain of 14 Claughton Theaters in Florida. It did not become a Spanish theater until after my family sold it the 1960s.

This theater was built in the early 1940s by my father, Edward N. Claughton and was one of several Claughton Theaters owned and managed by my family in greater Miami, Tampa and Boynton.

No, it was never a Wometco Theater. It was built by my father, Edward N. Claughton in 1949. It was one of several Claughton theaters in Florida, including the Royal and Embassy in downtown Miami, as well as the
trail on 8th St. and the Variety on Miami Beach.
