Empire Music Hall Theatre -> Wetherspoon pub

From Empire Music Hall Theatre to a Wetherspoon pub. That is the story of this remarkable building in the heart of Kingston-upon-Thames. The Music Hall/Theatre open over 100 years ago, in 1910, featuring a projection box. Inside, the décor was said to be magnificent with the auditorium decked out in Grecian Renaissance style. Inevetiably, as seems to be the case for so many old world theatre, it was badly damaged in a fire and had to be rebuilt. The venue has hosted many top names including: Gracie Fields, Jack Hylton, Max Miller, Florrie Forde, Flanagan & Allen, Marie Lloyd, Harry Champion, George Formby, Louis Armstrong, The Western Brothers and George Robey. Sadly, the theatre was closed on 27th March 1955 and turned into a supermarket. Then, on 10th July 1997, it was transformed in to a JD Wetherspoon pub called the Kings Tun.
