Listed in the 1911 Stamford City Directory only. There is no 1910 text so it could have been around in that year. Microfilm would confirm that. In 1911, the Eagle opens, not listed in 1912, but in 1913 becomes the Colonial Theatre until 1920.

There is a building containing 3 nearby addresses in the twenties and to the left at number 35 is a somewhat older building, like an old school brick tavern. It’s 2-stories with the second floor of 3 windows towards the roof and a large space underneath and then a large wooden beam spanning the doorways which are set back a few feet with tile inlays. Maybe this was it.
There is a photo of a Colonial Theatre at the Connecticut History Online web site, but the text gives the address as 23 Atlantic Street, Stamford. The date given for the photo is 1922.
The Eagle theatre placed its first ad on July 7th, 1911 and reopened as the Colonial theatre on January 14th, 1913. Ads posted.
