There are two Capitol Theatres in Huntsville. The newer Capitol Theatre opened its doors on November 2, 1948 as a replacement of the older Capitol Theatre located left of the town hall that later became a bowling alley in 1952. It was twinned in the late-1970s.

The earliest info that I can find is a September 1954 showtime, and that’s about it, meaning that this opened around that year.
