This drawing looks very much like that of the Capitol Theatre in Bowling Green. I wonder if they had the same architect? The black glass and trim,and event the feel of the marquee.

This theater actually had two fires. The first was around 1943. It was remodeled after that fire. The exterior was of black and ivory glass tiles with chrome trim. It was the first, and for many years, the only air conditioned building in town.
After the 1957 fire, the building was rebuilt, another theater was not considered a profitable venture so Scottsville was without one for several years.
I haven’t been able to find a photo of this theater but I have found a drawing of it. That drawing is here:
