Event: Lady Koo, Mr Carl Heslop And Buster Keaton Launch Our Restored Cinema Organ
11 Nov 2010, 7:30 p.m.
In 1959, the last cinema organ in Newcastle disappeared. It had been there since 1930, and generations of cinema goers thrilled to live music, both before, during and after the main feature. Today that cinema is the Carling Academy. And today, for the first time in over fifty years, a Newcastle cinema unveils a cinema organ, as the Star & Shadow launches its restored Compton organ.
