The Princess Theatre took over the spot of the Orpheum Theatre beginning on February 22, 1912 with Gussie Hunt as “Jealous Julia” and Pauline Bush in “Society and Chaps.” The Orpheum live events were placed in the former Grand Opera House.
The Princess closed at the end of a 10-year leasing agreement getting a refresh in the Summer of 1922. It relaunched with a grand reopening on September 2, 1922. In September of 1924 the venue was gutted in a renovation to retail.
