In April 1933 the Federal bankruptcy referee announced that this theater, formerly operated by Publix-Fitzpatrick-McElroy, Inc., was sold to the newly formed Theatrical Managers, Inc. The new company included veteran theatrical operators V.U. Young of Gary, IN, and C.J. Wolf of Wheeling, WV; and Pierre Goodrich and Leslie Colvin, both of Indianapolis.
1937 images added.
The Wysor Grand Opera House launched September 15, 1892. It closed on September 3, 1961 with a horror double feature of Shadow of the Cat and Curse of the Werewolf. It was sold and razed in 1963.
Like its neighbor, the Strand Theatre, the Wysor Grand has been demolished. This web pagehas a ca.1956 photo of the Wysor with the Strand in the background.
