6. Premier Theatre (site)

Look closely at the vacant block next to the Club House Hotel and imagine some one playing piano and violin to silent movies at Peak Hill Premier Theatre.

In the '30s it doubled as a skating rink in winter. Seats were removed and the floor dusted with white powder.  Sadly, skating came to an end when the eighty pairs of skates were destroyed in a fire at Tullamore, where another weekly skating rink was conducted.

Talking Pictures came to the Premier, one of the few chosen.  Ultimately the demise of the building came due to vandalism and a fire sixty years after it opened.  A sad end to happy memories for many.
