This is now known as the State Theater, and has been fully renovated for community events. the actual EXACT address is: 152 South First Street, Colquitt, GA 31737 …
The original name was “Colquitt” and later changed to “Hunter” owned by E. J. Hunter. Seating capacity was 300. I toured the building severa years ago and found that a new metal roof had been placed on the building. All of the abestos material had been removed from the walls and booth. I understand that the facade has been rebuilt with a marquee on it.
These updated Theatres must all be in the SOUTH GEORGIA area. GENE THEATRE.CARVER THEATRE.
According to the Chamber of Commerce (Oct 2007) it is the Colquitt Theatre. There is a plaque on the building that says it is the Hunter Building, but not theatre. They, of course, could be wrong. The theatre was recently gutted in preparation for a facade restoration.
