After five years of mixed programming, the last ever live show at the St James closed 29 July 1931. The theater remained empty for a month. With no sub-letting interest following the failure of two major theatrical entrepreneurial efforts, lessees Union Theatres decided to reintroduce film screening with programs initially running in unison with their Capitol cinema. First presentation was Gary Cooper in Paramount’s “City Streets” (1931) commencing 29 August 1931.
