This replaced an earlier theater called the Holliday Theater, which got destroyed by a fire on September 30, 1937. This theater dedicated the old name by renaming the Olympus Theatre the Holliday Theatre sometime in early-1941. It was closed in the mid-1950s after being a short-lived CinemaScope house.

This one opened as the Olympus Theatre on November 2, 1938. The opening day movie was “Sing You Sinners” starring Bing Crosby.

In December of 1941 this theatre was advertising as the Holladay Theatre, so the name change took place prior to that date.

The Olympus Theatre closed in 1941. It was remodeled and reopened as the Holladay Theatre in 1943. Seating was reduced to 450. This should be Holloaday Theatre with an AKA of Olympus Theatre
