Theatre History
The Dominion Theatre was designed by architect brothers William and T.R Millburn, and opened on 3 October 1929.
The Dominion was originally built as a huge cinema – similar to the Apollo Victoria theatre. It originally had three tiers, although the top tier was eventually removed, making the capacity now just over 2000 seats.
As well as cinema, the venue also hosted opera, variety acts and dance. In the 1950s and 1960s it ran some long runs of film musicals including The Sound of Music and South Pacific, and staged some lavish concerts including Judy Garland, Maurice Chevalier and Shirley MacLaine.
