The new bullding, con- structed through a stock company of which & number of men Interested in the advancement of the drama were members, was erected in 1880, The theater project did not prove a financlal bonanza and when com- petition arose through the opening of the Lyceum theater the attend- ance at plays shrunk noticeably. The stock company leased its inter- theator was managed successively by John Hanna and J. W. Ringrose, About 30 years ago it passed into the hande of Frank Keeney of Brooklyn, N, Y. Mr. Keeney, who controlled a chain of theatres, estab- lished a vaudeville pollcy which was kept up for several years, Bome time afterward the late Patrick S.| McMahon became associated with !the management and ownership of the playhouse as a partner of Mr. Keeney, At that tme the theatre was known as “Keeney's" Later the playhouss became the property of Mr. McMahon who bought out the Keeney interests and its name became the ‘“Majestic.” Beveral |years ago Contaras Brothers & Perakos purchased the bullding and gave It its present name the “Pal- ace.” The p'ayhouse was one of a num- ber of moving picture and vaude- ville houses involved fr. a recent merger through which the Hoffman |theatrical {nterests and Contaras Brothers and Perakos were united Because of its position as Britain's first playhouse, the theatre is held {n high sentimental regard by lovers of the drama.
