The Capitol Centre

The property upon which the Capitol was built was purchased in 1927 by Louis Rosenbaum, a Sturgeon Falls businessman. He began building the structure and, when he ran out of funds, he sold it to Famous Players Canadian Corporation. They opened the Capitol Theatre on June 1st, 1929. The Capitol had 1455 seats and was referred to as “a palace of splendor” with it’s elaborate Spanish lights and décor. The movie that was shown to the sold out grand opening crowd was, In Old Arizona. It was the first all-talking Fox feature movie, a western starring Edmund Lowe, Warren Baxter and Dorothy Burgess.

    The Comic Strippers are a fictitious male stripper troupe, played by a cast of some of Canada’s best improvisational comedians. These guys try to be sexy… it just comes out funny. Constantly grooving and gyrating, in between scenes they banter with the crowd and perform their sexylarious twist on improv sketches. They sing, they “dance;” these guys are oiled up and ready to make you laugh. Women often say the most attractive thing about a man is his sense of humour - so ladies, these stripped-down comedians are sure to make your head explode. And not to worry, gentlemen, this is definitely a parody of male strippers. “A show suitable for both men and women… an entertaining ride where anything goes.” - Rip It Up Magazine

    Semi-undressed and completely unscripted, The Comic Strippers take off their shirts and take on your suggestions to create a whole new genre of comedy.

    WARNING: No extreme nudity, just extreme hilarity. A show for all genders… 19+ only

    After an ‘electrifying’ Capitol Center performance in 2023 to a jam-packed audience, North Bay's favourite classic metal band returns in 2024 with its next original album-Ascension to Chaos (to be released March 1st).

    This album, the second of three to ever be released, moves forward from the first albums early Ozzy/Judas Priest (dark) influences and draws from late 80’s early 90’s thrash and sunset strip bands.  ‘A wild, crazy and fun follow up!!’ 

    Tickets are cheap-only $15!!! The band’s hope: “spend your hard-earned money on diner and drinks with family and friends and make this concert part of a larger night-we want people to have fun-that’s why we’re doing it-Ryan Walsh-drummer” 

    Last show was a huge party for young and old alike…as a metal concert should be. Let’s make this an even bigger one. There will only be three Capitol Center shows ever…so don’t miss this!!!
