Hey, that’s some great info! The building was donated to the Knights of Pythias in the early 1900’s (perhaps the KayPee?) but that’s all I know. Most of the local Knights have past away and the history is lost with them. As for the chimney, we did find that unusual and will investigate more. I’ll have to look into the info you provided. Thank you!
Hi! I am the owner of Capitol Theatre in Mount Gilead, OH and yes, we are still open for business (June 2014). The dawn of digital in a small town had us reconsidering if we want to continue to run the theatre, but it made me really sad to think it wouldn’t exist anymore. I am sure the building has a storied history but can’t find much. Even the historical society was a bust. Any ideas where to look or get help?
