I also forgot to mention that there is another piece of footage from Channel 9 Central West, October 2019. The advertisement mentions there is the projection box. Inside the projection box is an 35mm projector, https://www.facebook.com/9NewsCentralWest/videos/lithgow-theatre/548110869328077/ Thank you, Anthony

For your information and enjoyment there is a video of the theatre which includes some drone footage of the Lithgow district. This also includes interior photos of the auditorium at https://www.facebook.com/ljhooker.lithgow/videos/theatre-royal-208-216-main-street-lithgow/1766275166947365/

Thank you,

Twenty six photos of the interior can be seen at this site, https://www.commercialrealestate.com.au/property/208-216-main-street-lithgow-nsw-2790-2015965139 OR https://www.realestate.com.au/property-house-nsw-lithgow-109299941 It is likely that copyright in the photos exists with the real estate agent.

It features a 54 space carpark, a commercial kitchen and a bar. Most of the interior of the theatre has been preserved. The lighting batten before the proscenium would have to be removed in order for movies to be shown.

The deepened floor towards the proscenium is the dance area.

While the asking price was $825000, it was sold by private treaty in 2019.

Thank you,
Anthony
