Capitol Theatre Griffith Street, Coolangatta, QLD - Photo Laurie Holmes - Great photo !!

This is an old photo of the interior of the Capitol Theatre – seated is Bill (Chappie) Chapman – chief projectionist. Gent with back to camera in the white shirt is Gerald Conaghan – owner of the theatre. Great shot of the canvass seating. Gerald was a good hearted chap and put on a free matinee once a year for our School [all 200 of us]. Cartoons all afternoon. Good days…….Photo & comment courtesy of Laurie Holmes.
