As of March 1982, the cinema was converted to a triple picture house. The reduction in size meant as a venue for bands and artists the Odeon was no longer a draw.

Robert Halpern Hypnotist was a regular attraction right up until the ninties.
The Man, another did have a short run in the late eighties.

And the last of the big names to play was Rick Wakeman. He played three concerts in August of 1987, with Kitt and the Widow.

  1. This was a great experience and I would highly recommend it. The venue was beautiful and the music was excellent. The candlelight added to the atmosphere and made it feel very special. Learn More About candlelight concert in Edinburgh
