Neil Forbes 2nd Jul 2015		The Kensington. That one's gone as well. Last I remember it was converted to an under/18s night venue(no alcohol) but what it is now, I have no idea. Never went any further into it than the front entrance off Hunter Street. I remember what was there before it, though, a H.G. Palmer sewing machine sales and repair shop had that location well-and-truly stitched up!



Record Collector 2nd Jul 2015		Thinking another theatre the Kensington I believe wow my keypad knew what I was going to two twighlight theme music sounds lol



Neil Forbes 2nd Jul 2015		Some movies would work well with that theatre's audio system, others might not. Incidentally, the theatre was originally called the Lyric and entry was directly off Wolfe Street in the days before the Goumas's got hold of it. It had spent several years in disuse until about 1972 or 1973 when it was refurbished, given its "posh" new spelling and had the entry foyer relocated to under where the original foyer was. A "tunnel" with a set of steps brought you up to the corner of Wolfe and King Streets.



Record Collector 2nd Jul 2015		A relative of mine went to see Tommy at the theatre couldn't understand it as I explained it to her recently it would be in quadfonic (excuse my spelling mistake) these days it's known as surround sound



Neil Forbes 2nd Jul 2015		The cinema was one of the first equipped for Stereo movies, not that Mel Brooks' s films made very much use of the stereo effect throughout, just at moments he wished to highlight. Accoustically the theatre was so-so. It's mainly Margaret Goumas's manner that got people off-side.



Record Collector 2nd Jul 2015		As I regular commute to Newcastle and won't be for long as I'm moving to another state I remember that theatre had bad acoustics as it sounded like if it was in a concert hall Oh I'm eating back beans while I'm typing this haha



Neil Forbes 2nd Jul 2015		I remember the first time I saw this at the Lyrique Cinema, Wolfe Street, Newcastle NSW. There was me and only one other person in the whole cinema to see it! This might've been partly due to the personality of the cinema's owners, Theo & Margaret Goumas, particularly Margaret, rude and abrupt, and somewhat arrogant. Theatre closed a couple of years ago, hardly anyone missed or misses it.



zabadak 2nd Jul 2015		Useta love this but it hasn't dated that well... :erk:
