London’s Prince Charles Cinema, who specializes in cult repertoire screening, is aiming to expand at the second venue and more.
The cinema has taken over the Stratford Photo House in East London, which closed last year, and bid to reopen.
Negotiations with Zedwell LSQ Ltd (owned by developer Criterion Capital) continue to be about the future of original Leicester Square site Paul Vickery and film director Paul Vickery, but exhibitors hope to expand to the beginning of several new front posts.
“We understand that considering what happened this year, we seem to be trying to change the operation, but that’s not what’s going on,” Vickery said. Guardian, Who first reported the expansion plan?
“We were looking for an existing venue that needed a little love that could turn into a new site.”
Vickery has been confirmed screen Currently there are no plans for a third or fourth venue, but that is the desire of the exhibitors. He also said there is no additional investment in favour of expansion beyond the film’s current business model.
This is not the first attempt at expansion from Prince Charles. In 2022, the cinemas bid to take over the rejected Edinburgh cinemas. The film house reopened earlier this summer under the title of the Scottish real estate company Caledonian, and was run by former cinema staff.
An online petition was launched in January this year in protest of the damage clauses in the landlord’s latest contract. The petition currently has 165,293 signatures.
In May, Westminster Council decided that Prince Charles Cinema would be included in the community value asset list, according to a statement on the Cinema site.
If a building is listed as such, its owner must notify the council if it is for sale. The six-month moratorium for sale will then be called by the local community to raise funds and bids to buy in the open market.
Landowners do not need to sell their property to community groups and do not need to continue with existing leases.
Prince Charles opened in 1962 and converted to theatre in the mid-1960s. It has been run by Ben Friedman, the Robbins film, since 1990.
