The November 9, 1964 issue of Boxoffice said that the Victoria Theatre in Chicopee, which was being extensively remodeled, would reopen as the Cabot Theatre. Seating capacity would be reduced to 650, to provide more room between rows.

The Theatre Historical Society archive in IL has the MGM Theatre Report for the Victoria Th. in Chicopee. Located at 79 Cabot St. 792 seats, Fair condition. There is an exterior photo taken April 1941. There is a notation “Closed”, but in the photo, the poster cases are full; it doesn’t look Closed.

In it’s last years, it was known simply as “Chicopee Cinema” and was closed by 1984.

Also known as the Pastime. It really was a church.
