On April 6, 2011 the non-profit Historic Angora Theater Society, Inc. was formed. It’s status has been refreshed as of July 2015. Since it was formed under the arts and humanities umbrella it would seem as though some sort of performing arts center has been envisioned.
The corporation was formed using a PO Box. It would be nice if Billy or Don, who created this entry, could supply the street and address number so an image might be accessed through Google.
So, now that Ron has clarified everything, I’ve uploaded the photo to which I referred as the Ogunquit Playhouse before it became Ogunquit Square. When you compare this photo with the street view you can see that the building to the left has hardly changed.
For anyone wishing to check out the image to which I refer, I did my inquiry at Ogunquit Theater Photos. It was about the 30th image and shows people on the street where a performance by Maude Adams in Twelfth Night is advertised.
Doing some quick research I came upon the Ogunquit Playhouse, which is a long time, live, summer theater. The original location was the one pictured on Shore Road above. I came upon a picture of the original Playhouse, which was a one story building with a brick façade next to a two story, white frame building. This is the spot. The Playhouse has subsequently relocated.
Nowhere in the Playhouse history on their home page do they indicate other than live performances were presented. So……..
Uploaded an image of the theater. The source was purported to be Cinema Treasures, except it wasn’t on Cinema Treasures for the Marble Hill. So who knows where it appeared before now.
Although the theater is nothing more than a box it’s nice to see a traditional marquee and the actual theater name rather than just the chain name.
These theaters have become so impersonal albeit grand.
Given the wool production in the area Angora is not a surprising name. What, or who, were O and S? Street name?

When you see a picture of the whole building you think of the temples at Luxor or Karnak
Uploaded the logo for the cinema which boasts a rustic appearance inside and out.
There is also an IMAX theatre in the centre specifically for scientific film programs.
Uploaded two photos of the Galaxy. Any clue as to the number of cars it can accommodate? Doesn’t appear very large from the picture.
Very similar photo to the one linked by Joe Vogel, sans people, from the collection of the West Virginia State Archives uploaded.
Uploaded two exterior and one interior photo. Note: name should be Capitol Center for the Arts.

Uploaded a photo of the entrance. This is an older theater than the nearby Carmike 12 but the two venues coordinate their product.
Or it’s one of those situations where one side of the road has one name, the other a different one. There are a couple of those in my area.
Uploaded three pictures from the Sawston Cinema, Sawston Village College site: exterior, interior, article on repurposing of the theater.
raysson, care to share with us in the photos section?
Ken McIntyre, your link no longer works. Could you find the image again but put it in the photos section this time?
Theater reopened for it’s brief summer season on June 19th. Of the four auditoriums, Number 1 is NOT handicapped accessible.

Premiere did reopen it after “lovingly” renovating it.
Edge logo uploaded
Uploaded a photo of an RKO advertising matchbook. As far as they were concerned the Marble Hill was in the Bronx.
Uploaded two photos from the Pierce site. The exterior shows the new elevator tower under construction, the interior from way back when.
