A 1951 LIFE photo labels a shot of Audrey Hepburn standing outside a Fulton Theatre as being in NYC, but I can find no listing. There is another (out of focus) theatre further down the street.

There was a Fulton Theater located on West 46th Street that became the Helen Hayes Theatre in 1955. I don’t believe that it was ever a movie theater. Could that be this Fulton Theater?
If it did show movies, then it counts. This site has information about the Helen Hayes Theatre including some photos.
It did indeed show movies in 1915, 1916 and again from 1947-1949.

And people shouldn’t confuse this theater with the current Helen Hayes Theatre on West 44th Street which is still open.
Here is a photo of the Helen Hayes Theater.
The Helen Hayes (formerly Fulton), Bijou and Morrosco theatres were all demolished for the construction of a hotel. Of the three I believe only the Bijou ever screened films. The current Helen Hayes on 44th Street was formerly the Little and Winthrop Ames. It was a radio/tv studio for some years. Don’t believe there were any screenings.
This location showed films as the Fulton.
