The Capital (with an ‘A’) Theatre was a vaudeville theatre, which by 1926 was also screening movies. It was located on W. Markham Street to the east of South Broadway, close to the Courthouse and west of the Hotel Marion. It was still open in 1929 but had closed by 1931.
(In the 1920’s the Capitol Theatre on Main Street was opened, and in the 1950’s the former Pulaski Theatre on W. Capitol Street and S. Spring Street was renamed Capitol Theatre).

If this house was still in operation in the 1920s, then it had to have been a replacement for the original Capital. The Capital is the first house shown on this web page about Little Rock’s theater history, and it says that the Capital opened as a legitimate house on September 11, 1883 and was burned down on February 11, 1913. The page doesn’t mention any rebuilding or later history.
