In 1969, a group headed by Gerald Kaufman, Sammy Davis Jr., and Donjo Medlevine (a former owner of the Chez Paris), leased the theater from Golf Mill Shopping Center.
First musical contractor was Edwin Shedosky, who was also lead trumpet player for all the orchestras he assembled that the various artists and plays required.
In the mid-1970s, management started booking one-night stands on Monday nights, sometimes boxing matches, sometimes headliners.
Periodically, the theater would showcase a musical or play, such as Sweet Charity, Hair, Grease, and Jesus Christ Superstar.
Harry Lee Rogers ran this operation, handling scripts, costumes, music, lighting, casting, and directing single-handedly.
The theater closed when Golf Mill Shopping Center, the owner of the property, refused to renew the lease in 1984.
