Classic Royal Cinema
This 1938* aerial view captures both the façade of the Regent, with shop window awnings down on either side of the entrance canopy, and the flank of the Theatre Royal. The enclosed exit stairs from the balcony can be seen clearly.
(* See the Essoldo/Regent for a 1937 view taken from a slightly different angle.)

The large white building across Manningham Lane from the Theatre Royal is Busby’s department store. In the foyer of the (1950s) Theatre Royal was a sign announcing that records played in this theatre may be obtained from the record department of Busby’s!
