The first talkie was ‘In Old Arizona’, first shown on Monday 19 August 1929. The sound installation was Western Electric.

Projection was from behind the rear stalls. When 70mm equipment was installed a lot of decorative edging under the front of the balcony was chiselled off to accommodate the picture height.
