he Rex Theatre launched on September 10, 1923 during the fair by J.A. Sullivan at 119 South Wewoka Avenue. Strengths included Simplex projectors, good ventilation and lots of available seating. Fox Theatre Circuit took on the venue getting into hot water when protestors successfully blocked a newsreel from playing about the murder of Marian Parker in February of 1928. In 1937, the Pix opened and appears to have been in the same location as the Rex. It appears to have ceased operations on May 21, 1963 with John Wayne in “The Commancheros.”
