From the Wikipedia article

The Screen on the Green, also known as Everyman Screen On The Green, is a single-screen cinema facing Islington Green in the London Borough of Islington, London, England. The current building was opened in 1913 and it is one of the oldest continuously running cinemas in the UK. It is an example of the many purpose-built cinemas that followed the regulations set by the Cinematograph Act 1909. The idea of cinema was re-invented here by Romaine Hart in 1970 and it was seen as a model for new stylish cinemas in the UK. It became a venue for bands such as the Sex Pistols and The Clash, and a place to be seen in the 1970s and '80s. Hart sold the cinema in 2008, and it is now (as of 2025) run by Everyman Cinemas.
