Listings for the Capitol theatre in West Brighton ended in 1950 in the Advance.
From Google Street Views the building looks like it’s being used as a warehouse. The main entrance is bricked over.
A fairly recent photograph of the Capitol Theatre can be seen halfway down this page:

I’m 57, born & raised on the Island, and have no recollection of the Capitol.
It is still listed in the Film Daily Yearbook:1957 edition, but with no seating capacity shown (meaning it could have just closed)
does anyone know exactly when the theatre closed? i am 46, a lifelong s.i. resident and dont remember it being open in my youth..
Once again, a “FOR SALE” sign has been posted.
The theatre was built in 1924.
