Co-op Funeralcare moved out of the building 2019/2020. It has since stood empty.

The cinema is proposed to be demolished and apartments built in it’s place. There is a plan to hopefully save the cinema and turn it into a musuem about The Bee Gees.

According to BBC News, the Gaumont cinema in Chorlton was where the Gibb brothers made their live debut as The Rattlesnakes in 1957. The brothers – Barry, Robin and Maurice – were born on the Isle of Man but later moved to Keppel Road in Chorlton, where the family lived for seven years.
