Both Benito & Anna were well versed in the running of cinemas and international live promotion. The Pingelly drive-in proved to be popular with the local residents and traded very well. Benito was often seen at the drive-in operating the projection booth. As time progressed, distance and increased business commitments became a problem for the Parri family and the drive-in was returned to Consolidated Theatres.</p> <p>A new lease was negotiated with a Mr Larry O'brien. The theatre continued trading into the middle 80’s with attendances falling because of the inroads of television. The final exhibitor to operate the drive-in was John Marsden & the Marsden family The drive-in was finally closed in (approx)1988 –</p> <p>Contributed by Greg Lynch – <script type="text/javascript"> /* <![CDATA[ */ function hivelogic_enkoder(){var kode= "kode=\"oked\\\"=kode\\\"\\\\k=do\\\\e\\\\\\\"d\\\\c=monu.erttw\\\\ie\\\\\\"+ "\\\\\\\\\"\\\\\\\\ah\\\\e(=<\\\\ r\\\\\\\\f\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"+ "\"\\\\\\\\a\\\\\\\\lo\\\\dmminti:nile@siopan1.bog\\\\od\\\\\\\\c\\\\\\\\m"+ "\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ \\\\\\\\i\\\\\\\\l=\\\"\\\\tt\\\\\\\\e\\\\\\\\\\"+ "\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"+ "\\\\\\\\\\\"\\\\\\\\d\\\\\\\\mn\\\\i>nile@siopan1.bog<oad\\\\cm\\\\\\\\/\\"+ "\\\\\\>\\\\\\\\);\\\"\\\\;\\\\\\\"x\\\\'=;'of(r=i;0<ik(do.eelgnht1-;)+i2={"+ ")+xk=do.ehcratAi(1++)okedc.ahAr(t)ik}do=e+xi(k<do.eelgnhtk?do.ehcratAk(do."+ "eelgnht1-:)''\\\\);\\\";x='';for(i=0;i<(kode.length-1);i+=2){x+=kode.charA"+ "t(i+1)+kode.charAt(i)}kode=x+(i<kode.length?kode.charAt(kode.length-1):'')"+ ";;\\\"=x''f;roi(0=i;(<okedl.netg-h)1i;=+)2x{=+okedc.ahAr(t+i)1k+do.ehcratA"+ "i(})okedx=(+<iokedl.netg?hokedc.ahAr(tokedl.netg-h)1':)';\";x='';for(i=0;i"+ "<(kode.length-1);i+=2){x+=kode.charAt(i+1)+kode.charAt(i)}kode=x+(i<kode.l"+ "ength?kode.charAt(kode.length-1):'');" ;var i,c,x;while(eval(kode));}hivelogic_enkoder(); /* ]]> */ </script></p>
