I’m aware that trying to find Mr. Lamb by this avenue years after the original post isn’t likely to bear fruit, but if he or nyone that knows how I might contact him, kindly email me at . I manage a Lamb building and would very much like to contact his descendent.

Thanks!

A summary of the organ’s history can be found at http://theatreorgans.com/AU/opus/OP12/OP1256.htm. As of September, 2015 the 3-rank console now resides in Auckland, NZ (http://theatreorgans.com/wota/). The console can be seen in the photos associated with this theater, both in the lower-left hand corner of the historic shot of the stage, and obviously in the photograph provided by the Auckland Wurlitzer Organ Trust.

Orchestra with mezzanine in background. The seating, and the seating layout, is original. Before the 1999 renovation, the mezzanine continued back another 100 feet, sloping back to the projection booth and holding an additional 1200 guests.

This depicts the marquee during the theater’s brief life as the Premier Theater, a rock club.
