50sSNIPES commented about Fox Theatre on Apr 19, 2026 at 7:45 am

Once operated by ABC Southeastern Theatres, and finally Plitt Theatres before closing on July 5, 1979 with “Every Which Way But Loose”. The reason of closure is because of the opening of the nearby Deerfield Cinemas, which opened a few weeks later.

50sSNIPES commented about Camelot Theatre on Apr 19, 2026 at 7:40 am

It was actually closed by Cineplex Odeon (not Carmike) on April 26, 1990 with “The Little Mermaid” in Screen 1, “Blue Steel” in Screen 2, and “Glory” in Screen 3.

ABC Southeastern Theatres also once operated the Camelot until being purchased by Plitt Theatres, who took over the theater afterward. Plitt operated the Camelot until the Cineplex Odeon takeover in December 1986, who took over the theater for its last three-and-a-half years of operation. This is never once operated by Carmike.

There is another opera house called the Roberts Opera House, that operated as a special events house as early as 1869. However, I cannot confirm if its related to the Hartford Opera House or a different theater in Hartford.
