The Colonial Theater is listed in the Film Daily Yearbook, 1950 edition (but not in 1941 or 1943 editions) so could have opened in the mid-to-late 1940's. In later years it was known as the State Theater.

I have no other information on this theater.

In 1945 only the Scenic Theater is listed for Rochester, NH. In 1951 both the Scenic and Colonial theaters are listed.

This is an old postcard of South Main St in Rochester. I'm not sure but I believe that the Colonial is shown on the left. http://i290.photobucket.com/albums/ll267/tallboyyyy/m31149.jpg
