The story of independent cinema in North Hertfordshire reached a new climax on 12th July 1996 with the re-opening of the luxurious 1936 art deco, Broadway Cinema situated in the heart of the world's first Garden City. This latest chapter continues the rich tradition of local cinema. In 1909, the first cinema opened outside London, the Palace Cinema opened in Letchworth. The Palace was refurbished in 1924. Six years later, on a site a few yards away, the Broadway Cinema was created. The cinema opened on 26th August 1936 with a black tie gala screening of “Follow the Feet” starring Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers. The Palace Cinema in Letchworth closed its doors on 31st December 1977. The Broadway Cinema closed its doors temporarily at the end of February 1996 with a special screening of “Windbag the Sailor” starring Will Hay. To ensure the continued prosperity of the Broadway, the sixty shareholders of The Letchworth Palace Ltd had come together with the Letchworth Garden City Heritage Foundation in a £2m programme to revitalise the cinema from a single to a four screen facility to combine the latest in sound, seating and projection with the original exterior and luxurious art deco interior features. |
