Glen Innes is fiercely proud of its Chapel Theatre.
Rightly so. This is not just another small cog in some huge multi-national cinema chain. Not at all. Run entirely by volunteers, the Chapel Theatre serves as a model
for true community-based cinemas and theatres across Australia. Originally built as a Methodist church in 1885, it was purchased in 1983 by the Glen Innes Arts Council Inc. (which, by the way, was formed in 1944 and is the oldest continuing Arts Council in NSW) and converted to a theatre.
Upgraded in February 2011 with a new, state-of-the-art, 3D Digital Cinema system, The Chapel is the first cinema in NSW (outside Sydney and Canberra) with Dolby 7.1 Sound!
The Chapel Theatre is a brilliant venue and used extensively for local theatre productions, concerts and touring professional groups as well as films and, of course, as a great big overgrown cubby house by “Glenizens” (inhabitants of Glen Innes area).
