Sutton Coldfield Cinema Project
The Sutton Coldfield Cinema, once the Odeon, then rebranded as the Empire has been shut since November 2020. PDJ Management Ltd purchased the site towards the end of 2023 with the intention of restoring the cinema and re-naming it 'The Royal'. I managed to contact James, the new owner and suggest a photo project which would not only further my skills, but it would provide him with images of the cinema before work commenced and generate an archive for the town to keep.
