Additional Description: When Hunt's Craterian opened in 1924, it had seating for 1,1187 people and presented motion pictures, live plays, and vaudeville acts. Six months later, fifteen-year-old Ginger Rogers danced across the stage. In 1928, America's first talking movie, "The Jazz Singer," played in this theater, and in 1929, air conditioning was installed for patron comfort.
