The people of Penistone are fortunate that they have a traditional picture house, owned by the local authority but run by Penistone Town Council.

We had a silent film showing recently and it always goes down well. It captures a bit of cinema magic from the old days.” The cinema showed The Hunchback of Notre Dame, from 1923. Donald MacKenzie, one of the world’s finest cinema organists, performed too. He is resident organist at the Odeon at Leicester Square in London.
