Listings for the Capitol theatre in West Brighton ended in 1950 in the Advance.

From Google Street Views the building looks like it’s being used as a warehouse. The main entrance is bricked over.

A fairly recent photograph of the Capitol Theatre can be seen halfway down this page:

I’m 57, born & raised on the Island, and have no recollection of the Capitol.

It is still listed in the Film Daily Yearbook:1957 edition, but with no seating capacity shown (meaning it could have just closed)

Once again, a “FOR SALE” sign has been posted.

The theatre was built in 1924.
