This very unique theatre, which was constructed in 1940, is located near St. Paul’s Square in downtown across from Sunset Station Depot. The front of the theatre in its Art Deco style is what sets the theatre off. The upper portion was set in and came to a point at the top. On the upper portion there was a diamond pattern in two tone blue set against a darker blue background. The lower portion of the upper facade had two windows set in the center and in a dark royal blue.
There was a vertical sign with “Cameo” on it in the upper portion of the front facade. There was a strip of cream color that divided the upper and lower floors of the building and came to a slight V-shape over the entrance with the words “Cameo” on each side.
The main entrance was a dark blue color and there was a free standing box office. The portion along the lower front of the theatre was done in a checkered tile in red and white. The same with the lower section of the box office. The Cameo had a nice sized lobby and a single floor auditorium. The Deco style was maintained throught the lobby and auditorium both in color sheme and lighting fixtures.
Today the Cameo is called the Cameo Center and hosts live theater, concerts, and special events.
