The Will Rogers was a handsome theater designed by architect Jack Corgan for Griffith Theatres in 1946. Architecturally, the theatre's most impressive feature is its concrete, metal and neon vertical sign and curved/triangle marquee.
The Will Rogers' lobby is now a coffee house called Will's, opened in 2002. The auditorium is still used for special events. The Will Rogers Theatre is currently owned by Carl and Anita Milam. Mr. Milam is a great-great-grand nephew of Will Rogers
