The Carib Theatre opened its doors on September 14, 1953 with Walt Disney’s “The Sword And The Rose” starring Richard Todd (unknown if extras added), featuring installations of a 15x28ft metal frame-work widescreen that can also adapt the newly-established 3D films at the time. The Carib Theatre was also the replacement of the Rex Theatre, which closed two days prior.
As a single-screener, the Carib Theatre originally housed 500 seats but already had room for an additional 180 more seats. Construction of the theater took three long years to get it in completion, featuring brick, concrete, and gravel. It was twinned in the late-1970s.
