My father saw his first ‘talking picture’ at this cinema in 1921. I believe that short sound films featuring vaudeville and opera stars were made in the early 1920s. Is the William Stephenson who built this cinema the same person who was part of the Failsworth Co-operative Society and connected with the laundries?
Hi, The Pavilion opened on June 18th,1914. I know this because my Grandfather, William Stephenson, built and ran this cinema. I still have the Rose Bowl presented to him by Messrs C.Macfarlane & Sons, builders of the cinema. Regards BILL STEPHENSON
