I worked at the cinema after I left school 1967. I was there for about 3 years. Then returned a couple of years later. I was always told that the theatre was older. Someone said Victorian. But now I know different. Anyway, at the back of the screen was a very large stage, with old props, torn curtains, and a walkway above from each side of the stage. At one side of the stage, there were steps that lead down to the ‘Dressing Rooms’ Some still had broken baths, sinks and mirrors in them. It was a strange sight. Wondering who may have been in there. But now I know it’s not Victorian… a let down. Still I enjoyed may time there. It was like a close knit family.
