My uncle bought the theater and turned it into Victory Temple COGIC the 1970’s it was a beautiful Church. Our mass choir recorded an album and broadcast live there every Friday night and Sunday morning. The theater brought life to the music. My uncle use to say that we sound pretty good when we traveled to other places to sing.. But nothing like how we sounded at home.. The quality was magnificent to behold on Sundays.. I’m 42 now and been to several churches listening to music… but nothing comes close to home.. XOXO Capri Theater…
The Capri design has a quasi Egyptian look to it.
My Uncle, Lawrence Borg, owned this theatre “The Courtland” from 1919 until 1927. He sold this theatre to purchase the Parkway in Oakland/Berkeley
The Capri/Cortland Theatre is now a church, and has apparently operated as such for years now.
