Beacon Theatre, also called the Broadway Theatre and Pythian Lodge, is a historic theatre building constructed in 1928 in the Colonial Revival and Art Deco style at Hopewell, Virginia. The three-story vaudeville and movie theater had a storefront used as a commercial space, second-floor apartments and third-floor meeting rooms. The theater building is decorated with classical plaster friezes, a cove ceiling in the auditorium and an elaborate proscenium. The Beacon Theatre building was used as a theater until its closing in 1981, offering live performances and movies. The City of Hopewell has been working on restoring the historic building ever since. It is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
