It is a great shame that this splendid cinema is not used for regular screenings. However, when I visited, in August 2018, the Hospitality Manageress was only too pleased to open up the auditorium, so at least I got to see it. You will notice, in the photos I took from the stage, the black curtain pulled halfway across the stalls. There is a matching curtain on the other side; these are used to produce a more intimate atmosphere when the full capacity is not required.
No film in this Theatre nowdays. Conferences, music and stand-up etc… Last film was a special event; the world premiere of “Mama Mia”. The four members of ABBA, Meryl Streep, Pierce Brosnan, Stellan Skarsgård, Colin Firth, Amanda Seyfield was present (2008).
photos from august 2009, sadly i didnt get into the auditorium but here are:
