I was conducted round the new premises by the manager-to-be, Mr Martin, from whom I understand that the cinema will be opened to the public within the next two or three weeks. From the balcony the scene is very pleasant, the whole building being decorated in a plain but distinctive colour scheme of gold. There are about 700 new plush tip up seats. Local labour has been used for the whole work, and the proprietors themselves have undertaken the work of the building. The latest British Thompson-Houston sound apparatus will be installed, and the cinema promises to be one of the best in the district," |
