In 1981, the Carlyle was part of Priority Theaters, an Indianapolis chain.

Yes, this theater WAS in operation in 1981 and was closed in the mid 80s. The building still stands, it was used for a plumbing supply store…

Was the Carlyle the one that had the reclining/rocker seats with the built-in cup holders and ash trays? Only theater I’ve ever seen with that, although I’m sure that are/were others.
