Ventura joined the "movie palace era" of Hollywood with the
grand opening of the Ventura Theatre on August 16, 1928.
This lavishly decorated Mediterranean style theatre cost
$400,000 to build, and created much excitement in our oil
boom town of 11,000 people. Of particular interest are the
ceiling and the original chandeliers. The first program
included an organ solo, vaudeville acts and screening of
the film "Excess Baggage."
