Grand opening ad (original and AI colorized) posted from December 2nd, 1927 issue of the Guardian.
The Capitol Theatre opened its doors on December 5, 1927 with Raymond Keane in “The Lone Eagle” and the Our Gang comedy “Love Me, Love My Dog”, and was a replacement of an earlier Capitol Theatre nearby that closed the previous day. The Capitol was part of Famous Players throughout its history as a movie theater.
Prior to the nearby Prince Edward Cinemas' opening in April 1973, the Capitol and the Centre Theatre were the only indoor first-run movie theaters in Charlottestown. However, that number was downgraded from three to two when the Capitol Theatre closed as a first-run movie theater during the mid-1970s.
Some current interior shots can be found on their website.
