BACK IN 1958 THE NOBLE THEATRE WAS REOPENED, IT WAS CALLED THE NEW NOBLE THEATRE. IT WAS RUN BY MY SISTER AND HER HUSBAND(BOB GILES). THEY SHOWED MOVIES AND HAD LIVE STAGE SHOWS. PRO. BACKWARDS , BETTY GRABLES HUSBAND AND HIS BAND, A CIRCUS, AND OTHER STAGE PERFORMERS. MAE WEST HAD APPEARED ON STAGE IN THE 30’S. THE THEATRE WAS TORN DOWN AROUND 1970.I THINK IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN RESTORED. IT WAS THE OLDEST THEATRE IN ANNISTON AND WOULD HAVE BEEN A GREAT ATTRACTION!

From hsvmovies.com:

“No longer in operation. Built in 1883 by William Noble. Located at 10th and Noble Streets. Seated 1200 with standing room for 200. Modeled after the famous Winter Garden in New York City. Renovated in 1888. Had a 35 by 70 foot stage. In 1908, lightning struck the building, causing heavy damage, after which, the building was revamped. The auditorium was lowered to the ground floor. Demolished in 1958. A stained glass window was saved from the theatre, and was put in the Anniston Room at the public library in 1989”.
