former Odeon Theatre, Blackpool

former Odeon Cinema, Blackpool

The Odeon Theatre in Blackpool opened in 1939 and was designed by W Calder Robson and Harry W Weeden.

I caught it at it's lowest ebb in 2000-01 a few years after it had closed but it lives again as Funny Girls, the main venue for a drag show. The photo gallery on their website shows the deco interior in wonderful condition.
