It was Mr Robert William Paul who brought the first cinema pictures to Plymouth, when he displayed his Theatrograph machine at the Palace of Varieties in the St James's Hall, Union Street, on Monday November 9th 1896.
Cinematograph licenses were also held from time to time by the original Theatre Royal and the New Palace Theatre of Varieties mainly during the pantomime season. Licenses were also issued to miscellaneous premises for short periods.
