The basic form of the auditorium and the proscenium was retained after 1938, being simply made simpler and less cluttered with ornament. One feature that always pleased me was the progressive opening of the main curtain and two white travellers immediately behind, lit in different colours, as the auditorium lights dimmed and the picture hit the screen.
