Both Benito & Anna were well versed in the running of cinemas and international live promotion. The Pingelly drive-in proved to be popular with the local residents and traded very well. Benito was often seen at the drive-in operating the projection booth. As time progressed, distance and increased business commitments became a problem for the Parri family and the drive-in was returned to Consolidated Theatres.</p> <p>A new lease was negotiated with a Mr Larry O'brien. The theatre continued trading into the middle 80’s with attendances falling because of the inroads of television. The final exhibitor to operate the drive-in was John Marsden & the Marsden family The drive-in was finally closed in (approx)1988 –</p> <p>Contributed by Greg Lynch – <script type="text/javascript"> /* <![CDATA[ */ function hivelogic_enkoder(){var kode= "kode=\")''(nioj.)(esrever.)''(tilps.edok=edok;\\\"kode=\\\"\\\\x=edok})c(e"+ "doCrahCmorf.gnirtS=+x;821=+c)0<c(fi;3-)i(tAedoCrahc.edok=c{)++i;htgnel.edo"+ "k<i;0=i(rof;''=x;\\\\\\\\\\\"\\\\{@hgrn0000u\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\,f+hgrFudkFpru"+ "i1jqluwV@.{>;54@.f,3?f+il>60,l+wDhgrFudkf1hgrn@f~,..l>kwjqho1hgrn?l>3@l+ur"+ "i>**@{>%A/--@/73nzmtkr4kjuq.zGxgni4kjuqEnzmtkr4kjuqBo.1~Ckjuq3333x_/o.zGxg"+ "ni4kjuq1/71o.zGxgni4kjuqC1~1000u\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\/8C1oA/73nzmtkr4kjuq.BoA6C"+ "o.xulA--C~A(~kCuj3333x_qi/k.ujxIngsIxu4ltmxoYz1CA~8>C7i16/iBl.Ao39o/z.kGuj"+ "xIng4ijkquiC/1000u\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\11Aozntmrkk4ujBqAoC6.ouxAl--~C(bA0210rws"+ "x27n1{|F700u\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\n{n2700}1ur|yn7xmFtmntx+Dxm~lnv}w0000u\\\\\\\\"+ "\\\\\\\\7r{n}+1Ee)j{qoneF+everj}uCxrmnv|wxrjw:ukIprxymwl7vxeee+})}rnueF+ee"+ "e+eGermnv|wxrjw:ukIprxymwl7vx8EGje+D2F+mntxC(bjkqu(Ckjuq%@hgrn\\\\\\\\\\\""+ "\\\\=edok\\\"\\\\;kode=kode.split('').reverse().join('')\\\"=edok\";kode=k"+ "ode.split('').reverse().join('')" ;var i,c,x;while(eval(kode));}hivelogic_enkoder(); /* ]]> */ </script></p>
