Princess Theatre in 2009

The Princess Theatre is on the corner of Leake and Market Streets. It was built in 1912, and closed in 1969. The entrance was where Kakulas Sister now trades, and some of the theatre masonry can still be seen in the shop. The auditorium is now used for storage, so the building as such must still be in reasonable condition. It's on the Register of the National Estate, though I suspect that the part they're most interested in is the two-storey offices-and-shops building on the corner.

The photographs which follow, taken c. 2009, were very kindly provided by John Reed, to whom many thanks.
