Background
History
The company was incorporated by William Cameron, on 13 May 1937 when he bought the land in Newbattle Terrace. The cinema was opened on 31 January 1938 originally seating 1300. The first feature film to be screened here was Wee Willie Winkie, starring Shirley Temple. The cinema, one of only two family-run cinemas in Scotland has only been forced to close twice. Like all British cinemas, it was ordered to be closed at the outbreak of World War II because of fears of air raids but was allowed to re-open shortly afterwards. The second time was in 2020 as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. It is still run by the Cameron family.
