Notes


Opened as the Dixie Theatre, it was renamed Capitol Theatre in the early-1930’s. It was closed around 1970. The contributor of this photo left this comment on the site: "In the two pictures I posted, there are the main doors to the left of the box office. In those days, the 50s and 60s, white patrons used those doors to enter the theater and were seated on the ground floor. Black patrons, because of segregation, were forced to use the doors to the right of the box office, and to sit in the balcony."
