About The Capitol Theater

The Capitol Theater was a movie palace located at 1645 Broadway in Manhattan, just north of Times Square and across from the Winter Garden Theater. Designed by theater architect Thomas W. Lamb, this grand venue originally seated over five thousand patrons when it opened in 1919. After becoming the flagship theater of the Loews Theaters chain in 1924, the Capitol earned renown as a premiere site for Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer films while also hosting live musical revues and performances by jazz and swing bands.
