Art deco cinema and theatre run mainly by volunteers. Check out their on line program to see if there’s a film , show or singer on during your visit. Being an independent venue they don't just have main stream films or shows. Prices, including sweets, drinks, popcorn, are also much cheaper than main stream cinemas.
