"Theatre was built by Independent Order of Odd Fellows and crowned the Empress Theatre. The building, designed by local architect, William A. Jones, was two-tiered with gold-leafed clouds on the ceiling, red velvet seats, and a pipe organ. The managers were ex-pats from San Francisco, Abe Marks and Gus Cohen.

The Vallejo Evening Chronicle anticipated the theatre to be "...one of the prettiest small theatres on the coast" (January, 23, 1912)." (visit link)
