Fort Armstrong Theatre is an historic building located in downtown Rock Island, Illinois, United States. It opened in 1920 and was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980. It was commonly referred to as the Fort Theater. The theater was named for Fort Armstrong, a fortification that sat in the middle of the Mississippi River near the present location of the Rock Island Arsenal. The building now houses a dinner theater called Circa’ 21.〔(Rock Island’s Modernistic Architecture ), Charles Kirchner, Rock Island Preservation Commission, 1997〕 ==History== The Fort Armstrong Theatre opened on January 19, 1921. ''Midsummer Madness'', a silent movie by William C. deMille, played opening night. A ten piece orchestra accompanied the film, and there were other musical and comedic presentations. Lila Lee, who starred in the movie made a personal appearance. Congratulatory telegrams were received from Paramount Pictures President Adolf Zukor, Cecil B. DeMille, and comedian Roscoe “Fatty” Arbuckle. Adult admission on opening night was 36 cents, plus four cents tax, and a Child’s admission was 20 cents. The theater was originally owned by Rosenfield, Hopp and Company. Circa’ 21, a performance and dinner theater, has occupied the theater since 1977.〔
