This building was erected circa 1876 for use as the <a href=\"http:\/\/brighamcityhistory.org\/index.php?title=Brigham_City_Co-op\">Co-op<\/a> mercantile store downstairs and a social hall upstairs but was closed when the three-story mercantile building on the corner of Main and Forest was completed.<\/p>\n<h2>Opening of the Opera House<\/h2>\n<p>With hopes of taking opening night honors, the Brigham City Dramatic Association reorganized in 1891 for the purpose of producing a play in the new Opera House.<br \/>\nMansfield L. Snow, the editor of the new <em>Brigham Bugler<\/em>, was a backer of home dramatics and the opera house project. He made certain the readers were excited about the project by printing a running account of the construction and renovation of the old social hall. On the front page, he reported the arrival of bricks for the front extension, the construction of a gas plant to provide illumination, a hot air furnace, the progress of the paper-hangers, and the arrival of the 550 chairs and scenery.<br \/>\nThe grand opening was first set for October 30, 1891, with this description of the Opera House published in the <em>Bugler<\/em>: \u201cThe building will comfortably seat 500 people, divided as follows: parquet, 350; circle, 150; back gallery, 100. The chairs used in the house are of an easy comfortable style, with shawl rack and hat holder.\u201d <sup class=\"modern-footnotes-footnote \" data-mfn=\"2\" data-mfn-post-scope=\"000000000000060d0000000000000000_172\"><a href=\"javascript:void(0)\"  role=\"button\" aria-pressed=\"false\" aria-describedby=\"mfn-content-000000000000060d0000000000000000_172-2\">2<\/a><\/sup><span id=\"mfn-content-000000000000060d0000000000000000_172-2\" role=\"tooltip\" class=\"modern-footnotes-footnote__note\" tabindex=\"0\" data-mfn=\"2\">&#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/newspapers.lib.utah.edu\/details?id=369609&amp;q=The+chairs+used+in+the+house+are+of+an+easy+comfortable+style%2C+with+shawl+rack+and+hat+holder.&amp;eq=&amp;page=1&amp;rows=25&amp;core=udn&amp;fd=title_t%2Cpaper_t%2Cdate_tdt%2Ctype_t&amp;sort=&amp;gallery=&amp;date_tdt=%5B+1891-01-01T00%3A00%3A00Z+TO+1891-12-31T00%3A00%3A00Z+%5D&amp;facet_paper=Brigham+City+Bugler#t_369609\">The New Opera House<\/a>,&#8221; <em>Brigham City Bugler<\/em>, (Brigham City, UT) Oct. 30, 1981&#8243; <\/span>\nIt was noted that the remodeling, including the \u201ccommodious ballroom\u201d above, had cost the company between $15,000 and $20,000. Leading businessmen <a href=\"http:\/\/brighamcityhistory.org\/index.php?title=Lorenzo_Snow\">Lorenzo Snow<\/a>, Samuel Smith, A. E. Snow, Rudger Clawson, W. L. Watkins, Ricy H. Jones, and R. L. Fishburn, Jr., were officers in the company.<br \/>\nAt the same time the editor watched the construction, he was urging action on the part of the home dramatic troupe and wasn\u2019t disappointed. They opened on November 6 under the direction of H. R. Bowring and E.A. Box, with \u201cKentucky, or the Broken Vow\u201d as their first production.<br \/>\nThe opera house had conventional scenery with painted slats that slid into position in grooves. Special scenery was sometimes built by Amos Larsen. Most of the young ladies furnished their own dresses, but Frank Bowring and his father Henry Bowring had acquired many boxes of costumes through their years in show business.<br \/>\nRefreshments were available as boys walked down the aisles with pitchers of water, pouring a glass and passing it down the row for anyone who wanted a sip. Upstairs in the ballroom was a fine maple dancing floor, which was used for community and church dances and parties. Dancing teachers rented the upstairs for instruction. <sup class=\"modern-footnotes-footnote \" data-mfn=\"3\" data-mfn-post-scope=\"000000000000060d0000000000000000_172\"><a href=\"javascript:void(0)\"  role=\"button\" aria-pressed=\"false\" aria-describedby=\"mfn-content-000000000000060d0000000000000000_172-3\">3<\/a><\/sup><span id=\"mfn-content-000000000000060d0000000000000000_172-3\" role=\"tooltip\" class=\"modern-footnotes-footnote__note\" tabindex=\"0\" data-mfn=\"3\">Sarah Yates, \u201cOpera House, Theatres Were Part of History,\u201d 9.<\/span>\n<h2>Struggles<\/h2>\n<p>Home productions were cut short in early 1892 by disagreements between theatre manager A. E. Snow and the home dramatic club. The editor, his half-brother, printed information about the disagreement and urged new management. He was sued for libel, but the suit was unsuccessful. Management did change, but it was through mortgaging the building in June 1893, to the Rich family, which remained in ownership for many years, with John Y. Rich as manager.<sup class=\"modern-footnotes-footnote \" data-mfn=\"4\" data-mfn-post-scope=\"000000000000060d0000000000000000_172\"><a href=\"javascript:void(0)\"  role=\"button\" aria-pressed=\"false\" aria-describedby=\"mfn-content-000000000000060d0000000000000000_172-4\">4<\/a><\/sup><span id=\"mfn-content-000000000000060d0000000000000000_172-4\" role=\"tooltip\" class=\"modern-footnotes-footnote__note\" tabindex=\"0\" data-mfn=\"4\">Yates, 9. <\/span>\nEven with traveling troupes, the theatre didn\u2019t run completely smoothly. The newspaper remarked that \u201cbawling babies and big bonnets &#8211; or hats &#8211; should be strictly prohibited from the New Opera House. An infant almost ruined two acts of last Saturday\u2019s performance by its vociferous squeals.\u201d The big bonnets became the subject of much correspondence to the local newspaper.<br \/>\nTheatre also brought a bit of excitement to the city, with Apostle Taylor causing a ripple in church when he chastised the \u201cunquestionable short skirts worn by the bewitching fairies, the majority of whom were over sixteen years of age, all richly blessed with exquisite contours.\u201d<br \/>\nBrigham City was not without home drama after the demise of the home dramatic club in 1892, for the LDS wards benefited by adding the amateur actors to their ranks. Touring companies increased their visits to the city from 1893-1905 to use the new Opera House, with some 40 companies appearing locally during each of the years.<sup class=\"modern-footnotes-footnote \" data-mfn=\"5\" data-mfn-post-scope=\"000000000000060d0000000000000000_172\"><a href=\"javascript:void(0)\"  role=\"button\" aria-pressed=\"false\" aria-describedby=\"mfn-content-000000000000060d0000000000000000_172-5\">5<\/a><\/sup><span id=\"mfn-content-000000000000060d0000000000000000_172-5\" role=\"tooltip\" class=\"modern-footnotes-footnote__note\" tabindex=\"0\" data-mfn=\"5\">Yates, 9.<\/span>\nIn 1898, Bishop Lorenzo Stohl of the Third Ward obtained ownership of the Opera House and it became the property of the four wards, eliminating the high rental fee which had helped to force amateur companies out of being.<br \/>\nA new generation of Bowrings, Snows, and Bairds took an interest in drama and reorganized the Brigham City Dramatic Club. The arrival of elocution teachers Moses and L. L. Johnson of Provo also gave new impetus, since they taught through the production of plays by their students. John E. Baird, C. N. Christensen, and Frank Bowring were responsible for the new company formed on November 28, 1898.<sup class=\"modern-footnotes-footnote \" data-mfn=\"6\" data-mfn-post-scope=\"000000000000060d0000000000000000_172\"><a href=\"javascript:void(0)\"  role=\"button\" aria-pressed=\"false\" aria-describedby=\"mfn-content-000000000000060d0000000000000000_172-6\">6<\/a><\/sup><span id=\"mfn-content-000000000000060d0000000000000000_172-6\" role=\"tooltip\" class=\"modern-footnotes-footnote__note\" tabindex=\"0\" data-mfn=\"6\"> Yates, 9. <\/span>\nAlthough the new company toured the county, they did not perform regularly, but on their own time.
