This theatre is a little old but it contains a LOT of history. Its a nice place to enjoy a local play. There is a concession stand there that serves light refreshments. The service is very friendly. If youre in town, check out a play from our community theatre! Or... If youve never been, check it out!

Great time. You need to do more bluegrass. I paid nearly forty dollars a ticket last time I saw Rhonda Vincent in Hanover. Would pay that for any top name bands

Attended a David King concert. The concert was wonderful. It was Elvis Las Vegas style. The theater is great. They have a lot of different shows that you can go to. It is a very old theater that has been renovated and is very nice

I had a very enjoyable time the seating is comfortable the visibility of the stage was awesome. Had no problems seeing the actors as they performed. The play that we got to see was Little Women and it was excellent. I will definitely pass the word two friends and family that they need to visit the Capitol theatre for show.

This is not a movie theater. You will find live performances of all kinds here. Our most recent visit was a local community group, Cumberland Valley Sampler, with a show Tribute to Movies. It ranges in ages from 2 year olds to senior adults. Directed by Woody Payne. Be prepared to laugh and win prizes.

Review №56

Need better staffing. Not as professional as the Majestic in Gettysburg. Their staff made us leave our seats saying we were in the wrong seats. Moments later when they realized we had been in the correct seats, they told us we would have to wait for intermission to return to our original seats. At intermission no one could be found to help us return to our original seats. After the show when I asked to speak to the manager her staff said, Dont expect to get a refund I did get a partial refund and the managers excuse? The heavy rainstorm caused her staff to be confused Huh?Youll have a much better experience at the Majestic!
