The historic Capitol Theatre, located in the Hotel Maytag Building on First Street, originally was a single-screen theater which sat 585. Today, the now-twinned theater still is in operation, showing first-run films. It wass part of the Central States Theatres chain and is now operated by the independent Dream Star Cinemas chain.

Dream Star Cinemas no longer operates the Captiol (they are down to one two-screen theater in Pella, Iowa.) At some point the Capitol was taken over by Big Time Cinema,which operates seven houses in Iowa and two in Missouri.
