Odeon Muswell Hill NWC01_01_2006
ODEON CINEMA, FORTIS GREEN ROAD, MUSWELL HILL, HARINGEY, GREATER LONDON. The auditorium in the Odeon Cinema, viewed from the side of the circle, showing the curtained screen, proscenium and curved front and ceiling.
The Odeon Cinema opened in 1936. The exterior design of the building was restricted and subdued due to opposition from the church located opposite; the interior was therefore designed to compensate. The auditorium is described as being " the most elaborate interior of any Odeon cinema to survive". It was divided into three screens in 1974, with two screens in beneath the circle and a screen using seating in the circle and the original proscenium and screen; the former front stalls were unused. The cinema was renamed the Everyman Cinema in 2015. In 2016 two pod screens were built in the circle, while the former stalls were brought back into use and, along with the front of the circle, formed a new screen

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the grandeur of the Odeon Cinema in Muswell Hill, Greater London. Taken from the side of the circle, it showcases the exquisite details of its auditorium - from the elegant curtained screen to the majestic proscenium and curved front and ceiling. Built in 1936, this cinema's exterior design was intentionally understated due to opposition from a neighboring church. However, its interior was designed with utmost opulence to compensate for this restriction. In fact, it is hailed as having "the most elaborate interior of any Odeon cinema to survive". In 1974, the cinema underwent a transformation when it was divided into three screens. Two screens were placed beneath the circle while another utilized seating in both the circle and original proscenium area; unfortunately leaving behind unused front stalls. The cinema later underwent a name change in 2015 and became known as Everyman Cinema. Continuing its evolution in 2016, two pod screens were added within the circle area while bringing back into use not only the former stalls but also incorporating them along with part of the circle to create an entirely new screen. This remarkable photograph by Norman Walley allows us to appreciate both its historical significance and architectural beauty. It serves as a testament to how cinemas can evolve over time while still preserving their unique charm and allure.
