The history is richer, and a bit more complicated than this, and the building is not really demolished, but has been converted. It was built first in 1868 by Andrea Sacla as “Teatro delle Loge”, 1910 renamed “Folies Bergère”, 1935 converted into a variety theatre and cinema named “Teatro Imperiale”. 1954-1957 rebuilding by Nello Baroni and Maurizio Tempestini. Re-opened 23 May 1957 as “Cinema Capitol”. Closed ca. 1985 and abandoned. From 2000, it was converted into commercial space. (Source: it.wikipedia)
