Time Out, a global media outlet that inspires and enables people to explore and enjoy the best of the city, has recently released a list of the 50 most glamorous, architecturally eye-popping, Insta-friendly and just plain drop-dead-gorgeous cinemas on the planet. Cape Town's Labia Theatre, the oldest independent art-repertory cinema in South Africa, has been recognised on list. The cinema at 68 Orange Street in the Gardens has been named the 14th most beautiful cinema in the world. Congratulations!
The Labia Theatre consists of four screens, a 176 seater, a 95, 67 seater, and an intimate 66 seater. It further offers a coffee bar, outside terrace and a liquor licence. Patrolled parking is also provided.
The Labia Theatre, which was originally an Italian embassy ballroom, was opened by Princess Labia in May 1949 as a theatre for the staging of live performances. For the past twenty-nine years, it has been operating as a cinema on the alternative circuit appealing mainly to the more discerning viewer who enjoys its quality product and the charm of its old-world ambience.
