I lived close by to this cinema as a child but did not realise its history until recently. My father recalls American troops frequenting the building when it was no longer a cinema but a dance hall during WW2. Indeed I recall it being a garage/tyre repair shop. The demolition site was later developed as houses rather than shops.
