The dress circle is elongated and is an improvement, being greater in slope towards the back of the theatre, allowing more air space in the stall below. The seating capacity of both stalls and dress circle, incidentally, is greater than any other theatre in the

Several exits are provided from the dress circle, and the main entrance in by two wide stairways, thickly carpeted, leading up from lounge room and lobby below. small cufe, lending into the dress cirele lounge, is a welcome innova tion in motion picture theatrical design, and should prove popular.
