The Troxy, Commercial Road - East London.

Jim Linwood has added a photo to the pool:

The Troxy is a 1930’s art deco Grade II listed building with the capacity of over 2,600 now a corporate, conferencing, exhibition, banqueting and live concert venue.

Designed by George Coles for Hyams & Gale as a cinema in 1933, it was renowned for its large revolving stage, Wurlitzer Organ and opulent decor which included chandeliers and large sweeping staircases.

As a result of the wartime damage to the building, the Troxy closed its doors in1960 showing its last film The Siege of Sidney Street and re opened in 1963 as the London Opera Centre run by The Royal Opera House. The venue gained its Grade II listing in 1990 and was converted into a Bingo Hall run by Mecca Bingo until 2006.
