Full Capitol/Masquerade history in the below application for the National Register of Historic Places in 1999. As the Capitol it was a twin from June 1981 to August 1991, after the 1978 opening of Volunteer Twin Cinema South of downtown. All past renovations are covered in below link as well.

The Capitol Theatre was built by the Crescent Amusement Company in 1927 to ostensibly replace the town’s aging Reynolds Opera House. The Reynolds was used sporadically as a weekend film operation while the Capitol operated daily.
