35 years after it was closed down and turned into lecture halls,
Britain’s first cinema has flickered back to life.
The Cinema in the 80s |
Situated at the Regent Street in Central London, the first cinema was the first place to show a film in the UK, the Lumiere brothers’ Cinematographer in 1896.
A whooping £6million was spent on its refurbishment. The 119 year-old cinema has been rebuilt in an art-deco style by architect Tim Ronalds and it will introduce audiences to moving pictures.
