It was owned by Frank Green, who also owned the Mercury group of preview theatres in Wardour Street (Baronet, Coronet, Crown, Bijou(in Hammer House basement), and the dubbing theatre on the first floor of his office block (the name escapes me!). I worked as operator at night occasionally in the Roxie in 1983-4 when I was a preview projectionist in the Bijou. I remember watching ‘Pink Floyd:The Wall’, and ‘Koyaanisquatsi’ so many times….! Didn’t know it was ever called the Bijou – as far as I knew that was the preview theatre in the basement of Hammer House…
The Roxie had gone back to independent programming in 1983. Heavy Metal and The Song Remains the Same were playing on Dec. 14th, 1983
