Behind these walls!
Amazing to think that such an incredible auditorium lies behind these walls that none seems to care about!

The doors onto 7th were open today and the inside is a building site nearing completion into what could very well be a store!? From the other side of the street you can see building work in progress on the first floor also.

Distant shot up Oxford Street. The bland 60s building is where the once gorgeous Swansea Empire theatre stood until 1957

I was in Hong Kong 3 weeks ago and it looks like the complex has gone so it closed before Feb 28th 2008.

A Feb 2008 photo of the Playhouse. From this distance it looks OK but a closer look will show you that it has been left to the elements of late. I spoke to the car park attendant and he said there was all probability that the theatre would be demolished this year!!! i walked away stunned!
