THE PLAZA Super Cinema and Variety Theatre is a unique Grade II Listed building that has survived almost intact, in its original use, making it a rare example of this building type in the north of England. It is operated by a Charitable Trust with the specific intention of restoring it to its former glory. There has been little intervention work since its construction in 1932 and many alterations are reversible. At present, THE PLAZA is functioning but is far from restored. Together with further remedial work, there is the huge task of reinstating the original features that separate THE PLAZA from most other surviving Super Cinema buildings.

The Deutsche Kinemathek officially opened in February 1963. Its founding director, Gerhard Lamprecht, over the decades had meticulously put together an extensive collection of films, documents and equipment. The City State of Berlin acquired this collection and then handed it over to the new institution for its preservation and use.
Since its establishment, the Deutsche Kinemathek has indexed everything related to film history and technology, cinema and, to a certain extent, television: film prints as well as other items indispensable for research on film history, e.g. film programs, posters, drawings for set designs and costumes, photos, scripts, personal estates and other documents. The Deutsche Kinemathek had been a museum without an exhibition for years. Since September 2000 – as Filmmuseum Berlin – it has been able to present a part of its collections in the Permanent Exhibition Film.

Thousands of UK museums, galleries, archives and libraries, all in one place. We will continue to collect all of the venue, event and exhibition data directly from our network of over 4,000 cultural organisations around the UK, helping to make sure the collections, resources and activities they offer get the attention they deserve.

The goal of the Cinema Heritage Group is the recording, preservation and dissemination of cinemagoing history, its architectural, social and cultural aspects. This includes historic cinema buildings, moviegoing throughout the decades & film history.
