A shame the Empire’s restored façade has never been allowed to breathe. Scaffolding, banners, conspicuous and protruding floodlights and effects projectors, a glass balcony surround blatantly copying the more appropriate one above the Odeon’s entrance and a canopy totally at odds with the rest of the frontage all combine to make this property look very tacky. To call it a hotch-potch doesn’t do the mess justice. The previous canopy was ghastly but, before that, the simpler 1962 canopy and “all-over” light box was, at least, uniform. Ironic that some superb viewing areas should lie beyond such an ugly frontage.
