SC125 post 8 December – going to the theatre or movies. www.ipernity.com/group/daysincolour365/discuss/199774 Haydn Orpheum Picture Palace The Hayden Orpheum at Cremorne began life as The Orpheum on October 3, 1935. It was, at the time, a much grander movie theatre than most suburban movie houses, and for many years made the clumsily-worded boast of being “Sydney’s only suburban city movie theatre”. The justification for this claim was that it was built as a theatre, and could screen films or live cast musicals for its 1735 seats, over two levels. Backstage there were dressing rooms, an orchestra pit, and a functioning fly-tower to store and ‘fly’ scenery. It was a proper ‘legit’ stage and played host to the Australian ballet etc… In December, 1986, Mike Walsh O.B.E bought The Orpheum for his Hayden Group of Companies… Loving attention was paid to art deco restoration and creation, and a Mighty Wurlitzer organ from the Fresno Theatre in California was installed. The original Orpheum had been built with chambers for this, but one was never installed. A spectacularly restored Hayden Orpheum opened on December 9, 1987. orpheum.com.au/history

The watering hole at Kilaguni Lodge in Tsavo West National Park attracts many animals. It was too dark for my camera to record the zebra, but it picked up their reflection in the water. Sunday Challenge: Mysterious AIMG 9345
