Capitol Theatre, Performing arts center in Port Hope, Canada

The Capitol Theatre stands as a restored 1930s entertainment venue with a Norman Castle design, featuring twilight sky ceilings and medieval-style interior walls.

Built in 1930 for $80,000, the theatre was specifically designed by architect Murray Brown for the presentation of early sound films in Canada.

The theatre maintains its original 550-seat capacity and hosts both motion pictures and live stage productions, serving as a central entertainment hub.

Located at 20 Queen Street, the Capitol Theatre underwent a digital projection technology upgrade in 2013 through Ontario Trillium Foundation funding.

The structure employed steel girders in its construction, marking an engineering advancement for theatre architecture during the Great Depression period.
