The newspaper report on the Imperial’s opening explained that the balcony to the left of the screen was for the ‘orchestra’ (piano, violin and cello)and the one to the right was used for display purposes (large photographs of film stars).

On the right of the old photo the exit door is open, revealing the entrance lobby for patrons of the front/cheap seats.
