Needs to be listed as demolished. Probably the parking lot in the 100 block of W Main.

I would love to hear from Angelica !! More juicy Staples family secrets !! John Staples was my uncle, I am the daughter of his brother James. I spent many childhood summers in Piggott in the ‘60’s at the Carolyn Theatre. It has been closed down for years, and was razed years ago to make a parking lot. Nice childhood reflections !!
Angelica— get in touch !!

This article states that Floy Stewart owned the Carolyn Theater building in 1988, and had planned to demolish it at that time in favor of a parking lot.

My great grandmother is the daughter of Albert Wayne Staples. John and Marthann were her grandparents. She still talks about going to the theatre as a child and watching movies for free. I believe that she visited the Frankin theatre more often than the Carolyn theatre. Carolyn was her aunt. I know that she has contact information for the staples still living in that area who know more about the theatre and its condition now. I’ll have to ask her about it.
