The Rialto Theater in Deer Lodge, Montana was built in 1921 with 720 seats. The Beaux Arts style theater featured extensive painted murals and a painted stage curtain. The distinctive exterior used white terra cotta and red roof tiles.
The Rialto was gutted by a fire on November 4, 2006 that destroyed the stage, auditorium and balcony. The exterior was largely spared, and a long-term restoration effort has replaced the roof and is now focusing on the interior.[2]
