Wakefield Theatre

The Wakefield Theatre was opened by September 1936 and operated into 1937. It appears to have closed and reopened in 1947 operating until its closure in 1959.

It was converted into an extension of Peebles Department Store, which was destroyed by a fire in the late-1960’s.

Wow—-I grew up in Wakefield and remember the theater being closed. I never saw a movie there. The Peebles Department store next door expanded into the theater space later on and then in the late sixties the whole department store burned down. This is the first time I have ever seen a picture of this theater.
