Opening night featured the movie “Seabiscuit” with Shirley Temple and Barry Fitzgerald that followed a memorable performance by a local band – The Flying Ranch Hands (aka The Light Crust Doughboys).
Burk Collins purchased the Hall in 2006 and implemented a series of major upgrades to the facility resulting in a total renovation costing $7 million. The stage size was doubled and the seating capacity was increased to nearly 1,056 by the time the Hall re-opened in November 2010 with Ray Price serving as the headliner.
A remnant of the original curtain is on display inside and marquee on the front of the building is also the original!
