The A.M.P. Building was located at 527-535 Bourke Street Melbourne. The theatrette was a popular venue for film society screenings for many years. On the other hand, the Rialtovision Cinema was located some distance away on the ground floor of the Rialto Towers at 525 Collins Street. In 1997 it was home to a short 35mm special venue tourist film attraction, later renewed, and closed finally in 2009. There has been a suggestion that the Collins street address housed a small commercial cinema operation, known as the Rialto, and possibly predating the special venue set-up.

A.M.P. Theatrette opened in 1995. Also been known as Rialto Cinema, Rialtovision Theatrette(and possibly also A.M.P. Cinema?). May still be open and operating? Possibly inside the A.M.P. building(opening date of A.M.P. building unknown?).
