Founded in 1907, the Robey Theatre at 318 Main Street was a vaudeville/opera house before it began showing silent films in 1908.  Hamond H. Robey's theatre immediately became a popular attraction in town.  Today, Robey Theatre is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The Theater continues to operate as a movie house, noted as the oldest continuously operated movie theater in the Unite States.
A special plaque created by the U.S. Dept. of Interior and purchased by the R.C.H.S. notes its place in U. S. and Spencer's history.
