What a fantastic cinema it was. I still remember movies I saw there in the 1950s. Look at that area of Hurstville now, and weep at what “ progress” has brought!
I was raised in Penshurst from 1946 and went to this theatre for many years. It was open well past 1954 as I and my family remember going there in our teens at least, making that the late 1950s.
Shame there are no photos of the neighbouring Mortdale cinema as we went there almost every week.
