It was a superb luxury cinema. I went on most Saturdays in the 1950’s and remember Mollie Forbes rising up on the Compton organ playing her signature tune, Elgars ‘Chanson de Matin’ Iwas also there on the final night – a very sad occasion – when organist/manager Reginald Heywood played. It was so shortsighted of Croydon Council not to take over the Davis Theatre or at least purchase the Compton organ
