The Gem Theatre was a storefront motion picture venue that was the first Gem Theatre in Wenatchee, opened in or before 1909 in a space previously occupied by the Seattle Bar. The original managers (owners?) are thought to have been A.J. Ritz and F. Demers.
The original Gem Theatre may have been closed late in 1909 by new owner Bert Magee due to Rosenberg Building construction when the second Gem Theatre opened in October 1909.
