Listed as being located in Bow, it was actually located in Mile End, east London. Opened in the early-1910’s as Forrest’s Electrodrome by H. Forrest. It was taken over by Sydney Bernstein together with a local operator in around 1920. Around 1930 it was equipped with a British Accoustic(BA) sound system and taken over by the Granada Theatres Ltd. chain which was headed by Sydney Bernstein. It was leased out to an independent operator but was taken back by Granada Theatres in around 1933.
The Electrodrome was closed around 1940, possibly due to conditions during World War II.

I bet a lot of theatres closed during those years when London was being bombed,Would seem unsafe in a theatre if bombs start to drop,but then people do need entertainment to enjoy in those very dark years i have read about.
