In 1946 I was fortunate to beat numerious boys to the position of Page Boy at the Capitol Theatre,Melbourne. What a privilage this indeed was.I later became a Film Projectionist at the Australia Cinema Theatre. What a absolute disgace what has happened to the original Capitol.Maybe those that gave the orders to 'wall up' and 'cement fill' will be haunted by Burley Griffins ghost. The Melbourne City Council should have bought the Capitol and had it listed on the National Trust.You can find my documentary (part)on the Capitol,including rare erection photo's on - Google Mr Knightingale My Videos.<br /> Thomas Knight<br /> grapsynoWintergarden Film ServiceAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4703729428040928332.post-78873535837012013532009-06-22T12:45:26.520+10:002009-06-22T12:45:26.520+10:00Yeah the Open House event was great - I didn't...Yeah the Open House event was great - I didn't tour the Capitol but did get a chance to look through CH2, the new Council building across the road.

The Capitol was one of the buildings open to the public along with the Manchester Unity building and others.
