SUMMARY:The History of Reading’s Cinemas
DESCRIPTION:The author of several books, including “Picture Palace to Penny Plunge: Reading Cinemas”, David is ideally placed to talk to us about the history of Reading’s cinemas. He will describe the history of the single-screen cinema in Reading, from the travelling shows at the turn of the twentieth century, its heyday with the Vaudeville Electric Theatre in the 20s, through to today’s multi screen entertainment ‘villages’ and outdoor screenings. This is a talk which is sure to bring back many memories. Both for those who remember the cinemas mentioned and for those who remember watching films in their younger days. \nThis is the second of two talks in the Historic Reading Talks Series. The other talk takes place on 10th April. You may book tickets for either event individually or for both talks in the series for a reduced price.  \nAfter the talk, tea/coffee and cake will be available (included in the price). Pre-booking is preferred, but you can pay on the door, if there are spaces available.  \nTo book, scroll down.\n
