SCALA CINEMA 1978- 1993

Jane Giles/ FAB Press

A weighty, beautifully produced coffee table book about the iconic counter- culture cinema the Scala. First located on the site of an old concert hall in Fitzrovia, then moving to the site of a former picture palace in King’s Cross, the Scala attracted people from all over the country to see its alchemical mix of Hollywood classics and cult movies: horror, kung fu, LGBT+, animation, silent comedy, psychotronic and unclassifiable films. Perfect for any film lover, this compendium features all 178 monthly programmes plus commentary, photographs and ephemera.
