Taken sometime before the theatre’s demolition in 1974.
The Halifax Mail wrote an article on 31 October 1930 describing the theatre on its opening day:
“The walls of the staircase are in old-time half timber construction, the balustrade being of carved oak and the whole stair covered with the same fine carpet.”
