I grew up about a block away from this theatre so this was where I went often as a child. After 1970 it was renovated and re-opened as the Credit Cinema which lasted a few more years. Then it closed for good as a theatre and for years was a high class jewellery store. For the past several years it has been a restaurant/billiard hall called The Crooked Cue. The Credit cinema would have made a great reportory theatre back when there was the Festival chain of old cinemas. Since it’s demise, there has never been any theatre of any kind in what is now Southern Mississauga, south of the QEW highway. Not even a multiplex
The address for the pool hall is:
3056 Bloor Street West
Etobicoke, Ontario
M8X 1C4
Is Etobicoke near Port Credit?
THAT’S their Etobicoke location LM…the one here it the Mississauga (Port Credit) location. If you google The Crooked Cue it comes up with the former Vogue theatre location.
Okay, then the Port Credit location should be:
75 Lakeshore Rd E
Port Credit, ON, Canada
Does that sound right to you?
Exactly right!
