I grew up going to this theater! Lived in Grand Island from 1968 to 1980…saw crazy classics…THE GODFATHER (I was a child and slept thru it) and JAWS (hid under my seat) and HALLOWEEN (life changing) and so many others.
I’ve now lived in Los Angeles and New York City.
The Capitol always seemed so huge as a kid but I figured it was probably just a skewed memory because everything seems huge when you’re a kid.
Seeing that it had 1,200 seats…more than most Broadway theaters…blew my mind.
It really was HUGE!
