  • <p>Auditorium Safety Curtain designed by Frank Barnes dominates the auditorium, it features the two main industries connected to Doncaster, central image is the train either side coal trucks. A Safety Curtain with a similar industrial theme was used at the Gaumont Palace Derby, which opened two weeks after Doncaster on 17th September. This reminds me of the silent film frequently shown, of an audience panicking when a train hurtles towards them as if coming straight through the screen. Below is viewed the top of the Compton organ resting within its enclosure, awaiting to be summoned, above the proscenium the fan shaped grille conceals the Compton organ chambers.</p> <p>Ron Knee</p>
