Drift Theater #2

The first Drift Theater has its own page on Cinema Treasures. This second Drift Theater was opened on November 20, 1947 with Jon Hall in “Last of the Red Men”. It was still open in 1955 when it was listed in Film Daily Yearbook with 250-seats. It had gone from listings in 1956.

Most of it is gutted, although a small section on the side is used for a tyre business and the original paybox remains at the street entrance.
