Eventim Apollo, Hammersmith. Opened as the Gaumont Palace in March 1932, having been long planned (from 1925) with initially the Davis family as promoters, but latterly Gaumont British. It was designed by Robert Cromie, and had 3,487 seats in stalls and balcony levels, plus standing room for a further 225. It is art deco in style, with panels by Newbury A. Trent. The Gaumont was equipped with a 35ft deep stage, full fly tower with 28 double purchase counterweight lines, a 64ft wide proscenium arch, and 20 dressing rooms. There is an 4 rank / 15 rank Compton organ, reinstated in 2005 after many years in storage. The Gaumont was renamed Odeon in 1962, regular films ceased in 1984, but sometimes occasionally play dates. It became the Apollo in 1992, and has been taken over by various companies over the years (Clear Channel; MAMA; HMV; Stage C) but is currently owned by CTS Eventim. As the finest surviving work by Robert Cromie, and (together with the Plaza Stockport), one of the greatest, and least altered 1930s super cinemas, the Apollo is grade 2* listed, and had a major refurbishment (Foster Wilson Architects) in the summer of 2013, uncovering and restoring many decorative features of the building. The Apollo is regularly featured on film and television, from "The Smallest Show on Earth" (1956 feature film) to "Live From The Apollo" regular TV Stand-up recording (18, and counting, series beginning 2004). Taken on a visit arranged by the Cinema Theatre Association.
