Photo taken shortly before 9th March 1928 opening in the Back Stalls, with seating seemingly not yet installed. Through the open Stalls doorway lower center, we see the Entrance Lobby. A Ladies toilet is located out of picture right at the end of the rear cross-over. Clearly shown is the balustrade of the Dress Circle foyer ‘well’ – a feature common in big pre-sound pre-air-conditioned cinemas of this period. (Overhang of the theater Balcony section to left blocks any view of the screen for waiting patrons upstairs.)
