Any additional information on the Capitol would be greatly appreciated, and will be updated as soon as we get information.
This item from Moving Picture World of December 17, 1929 might provide the reason why the theater was renamed Capitol around that time: “The Patricia Theatre, Leamington, Ontario, established for quite a few years, has been secured by the Allens on a lease basis. Fred Broadley had charge of the Patricia for a considerable time.”
