Capitol Center for the ArtsDescriptionOpened in 1927, the Capitol Theatre was a prime stop on the Vaudeville circuit, and, later, Concord's first-class movie house and concert hall. Over the years, however, the theater slided into disrepair and in 1989 it was closed.
With $4.2 million collected in support by the newly formed, non-profit Capitol Center for the Arts, and 250 volunteers contributing over 3,000 hours to paint and restore the Egyptian-motif artwork, the renamed theater was opened in November 1995. The Chubb Theatre was named in recognition of the project's largest benefactor, Chubb Life.
The 1,307-seat theater is now equipped to hold many of today's lavish Broadway shows. It has been fitted up with new heating, air conditioning, electric and plumbing systems, handicapped accessibility including an elevator, a new lobby and vestibule, computerized box office system, updated backstage facilities and renewed seats.
