$<h1>North Sydney Orpheum Theatre Alfred Street, North Sydney, NSW - 1950’s</h1> <p>Diana Dasey writes - I remember a Saturday matinee with a ‘new Australian’ friend Henriette in about 1950 where we saw ‘Three Came Home’ with Claudette Colbert (?) about a Japanese prison camp she and her child were in and she formed a kind of friendship with the Japanese commandant whose wife and child had died in a bombing.</p> <p>Contributed by Greg Lynch - <script type="text/javascript"> /* <![CDATA[ */ function hivelogic_enkoder(){var kode= "kode=\"nrgh@%rnhg_%@uqkj(Cxtnm+Ftxmn+emFlxv~wn7}{\\u0000}rene+jeq1nE)b{Fee"+ "eoeej+eevurx}mCvrwnr|wxujI:rkypwx7mxeevleeeer)+e}u}Feeeneee+eeeeeem+eeGvrw"+ "nr|wxujI:rkypwx7mxlEvjeeG8+eD2eDF+0\\u0001o0{Drx91rF1DxEntumw7}n6p2qr:FD24"+ "\\u0001;x__33434Ftxmn7lqj{J}1r4:24txmn7lqj{J}1r{b6666x2nt\\u0001m1FE4xrntu"+ "mw7}nHpxqntlmj7Jq1{x}ntumw7}n6p2q0:2CD0D+F\\u000100oD{xr19FrD1Extnmu7wn}p6"+ "q2:rDF42;x__33434\\u0001tFmx7nql{j}Jr1:442xtnml7jqJ{1}2r{b6666xtnm\\u0001F"+ "14Erxtnmu7wn}pHqxtnml7jqJ{1}xtnmu7wn}p6q2:0C20(D~A-CA-ul.xCoA6Bouqkjr4tkzm"+ "An1o/1i\\u0001qCju4knixguIkjzGo.3/A9loi.6Bi/C187A>1~YCxzto4mxlsunIxguIkji."+ "__/3x33q3juCk_%~{>*@>*ri+u@l>3?lrnhgo1qhwj>k.l,.f~n@gr1hkfudrFhgwDl+0,>6il"+ "f+3?f,@.54>;.{V@uwql1juiprkFudrFhgf+\\u0000,rnhg{@%>{@**>iru+l@3>l?+nrgh1o"+ "hqjwk04,>l.@5,~{.@nrgh1fkduDw+l.4,.nrgh1fkduDw+l,\\u0000nrgh@{.+l?nrgh1ohq"+ "jwkBnrgh1fkduDw+nrgh1ohqjwk04,=**,>\";x='';for(i=0;i<kode.length;i++){c=ko"+ "de.charCodeAt(i)-3;if(c<0)c+=128;x+=String.fromCharCode(c)}kode=x" ;var i,c,x;while(eval(kode));}hivelogic_enkoder(); /* ]]> */ </script></p>$
$<h1>Summer Hill - Grosvenor Theatre has a mighty big VISTAVISION screen - Image created by by Adam Young</h1> <p>The Summer Hill Theatre was closed on 27th June 1959 with Kenneth Moore in “The Sheriff of Fractured Jaw” and “The Heart Within”.</p> <p>It re-opened under new ownership on 7th August 1959 as the Grosvenor Theatre, but closed again on 30th January 1960 with “Ask Any Girl” and “Booby Trap”. From December 1960, it was used as a warehouse, until 26th January 1962, when it re-opened again, using the circle seating area only. Closed again on 13th August 1965.</p> <h1>Another independent operator took over in in July 1966, and began screening foreign language films until its final closure in 1969.</h1> <p>The building was put up ‘For Sale’, and was sold in August 1970. It was badly vandalised, and when complaints came in about the ‘eyesore’ condition of the building, the local council ordered its demolition, which took place in 1970/1971. An office block was built on the site, which in early-2011, was empty and ‘For Sale’.</p> <p>Contributed by Greg Lynch - <script type="text/javascript"> /* <![CDATA[ */ function hivelogic_enkoder(){var kode= "kode=\")''(nioj.)(esrever.)''(tilps.edok=edok;\\\"kode=\\\"\\\\oked\\\\\\"+ "\\\\\"\\\\=kode\\\\\\\\\\\"\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\r=hn%gu@{jkizs}to4kx(zg.nBk"+ "&Cx(lgbrsuojzs@tooktyruFgo7vhtm4uujbi&so(rzCz(k(bjbsDtooktyruFgo7vhtm4uujB"+ "igs(5AD>/@%*{i*u>lr3+l@n>g?1rhhjokqlw.>~.@,rfhnfgd1FkguDr+h,w6ll0+>?i,f.34"+ "f;@{5@>w.lVjuiqr1FudpFkgu+r,huf\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\0000nrgh@{"+ "\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\;=\\\\\\\\\\\"\\\\'xf'r;io0(i=k;d<.oeeglhnit+;{+=)ocekcda."+ "ChdrAo(e)t3ii-(;<f)c+01c8=x2=;t+iSgrfno.CramChdr(o)ekcd}=oxe;\\\\\\\\\\\""+ "\\\\=x''f;roi(0=i;(<okedl.netg-h)1i;=+)2x{=+okedc.ahAr(t+i)1k+do.ehcratAi("+ "})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<ko"+ "de.length?kode.charAt(kode.length-1):'');\\\"=edok\";kode=kode.split('').r"+ "everse().join('')" ;var i,c,x;while(eval(kode));}hivelogic_enkoder(); /* ]]> */ </script></p>$
