A glimpse at the past. In preparation for the new sign box being installed Border Signs & Graphics have removed the old box, revealing the beautiful original art deco ceramic tiles hidden behind the sheet metal facade since 1972. Hopefully one day we can reveal the original tile facade and restore it to its original glory, but for now it’s just a temporary glimpse of our past.

Check it out next time you are in Shakespeare street before the new sign goes up.

We have received our WatchWord equipment, this is such an exciting piece of equipment, which will allow us to provide closed captions for every screening, but they will only be visible to those who require them via a special pair of glasses which can be booked in advance. We have 4 sets available for each screening.
