About this listen

This podcast is about How to (Re)open a Cinema, specifically the Broadway Cinema in Prestwick.


The Broadway is one of the greatest surviving examples of a golden age Art Deco cinema in Scotland. From opening in 1935 to closing in 1976, and surviving bingo, amusements, squash courts, and more. The Broadway is adored by, and now owned by the community that it served, and will serve again in the future. Your hosts are Cliff Baillie, and Kyle Macfarlane, of Friends of the Broadway Prestwick.
