jackkmn commented about Capri Theatre on Nov 19, 2004 at 10:34 am

The Capri was The Paradise Theater. The entrance/marquee faced Broadway. It was one of three theaters on Broadway between the Mississippi and Robbinsdale.
The lobby was very small. It was a small theater with a balcony.
The ceiling was a sky with twinkling stars and clouds. Castle battlements lined the top of the walls.
Saturday matinees were 9 cents and included a double feature, a short, a serial, such as ‘Don Winslow of the Navy’, and a number of cartoons. The huge Terrace Theater, now closed itself, opened in nearby Robbinsdale in 1951.
