When construction began in 1951, Ernie Kendall Sr. intended the Kenmor for live theatre. After his father's death, Ernest W. Kendall Completed the building in 1952 and operated it mainly as a movie theatre. A newsppaper article from the time indicated: "Film entertainment for Mordenites is now found in one of the finest theatres in rural Manitoba, the Kenmor Theatre." The Kenmor replaced the previous theatre, the Starland.
Stan M. Jenkins, Optometrist, had his office beside the theatre until he moved to the Morden Medical Clinic in 1963. Since then the office space has been occupied by a succession of businessesm including a beauty shop.
Vicki Pfeiffer purchased the building and in 2002 the theatre became a venue for live theatre performances by both local and national artists, just as Ernie Kendall Sr. had envisioned.
