Movies are still shown at the Auditorium in 1922, so I’m very sure films are still running at the Auditorium in 1926 as well.
Addresses in Lakeland have been changed since 1913. The modern address for the Auditorium Theatre would be about 107 S. Massachusetts. This site is now a small park jutting into Mirror Lake at the east end of Main Street. The Auditorium once closed the view east on Main Street.
Although it had been open only intermittently for some time, the Auditorium was active at least as late as 1926, when the August 26 issue of The Billboard said that vaudeville and roadshows would be presented at the house while a new theater was under construction elsewhere in town. The Auditorium was also available for conventions and for entertainments given by local organizations, according to the Lakeland Amusement Company.
The 1913 Sanborn map of Lakeland shows the Auditorium at 311 S. Massachusetts Avenue.
