Description
The Gem Theatre opened in 1928, first showing silent movies, in downtown Turkey, Texas. The Gem premiered its first 'talkie' in 1931. Turkey's most famous resident, Bob Wills, often returned to perform at the Gem. Wills and his band, the Texas Playboys, popularized Western Swing music. Wills appeared in dance halls and concert stages, Western movies and television during a career that landed the "King of Western Swing" in the Country Music Hall of Fame.
