FAREWELL PALACE ACADEMY
Dear patrons and friends
The credits have finished at the Academy Twin, one of Sydney's original and most beloved two-screen arthouse cinemas, for the final time as of Sunday June 27. Our final screenings were ANIMAL KINGDOM (MA15+) at 7.45pm and THE SECRET IN THEIR EYES (MA15+) at 8.00pm, and we thank the audience members who joined us for the screenings.
Regrettably, despite every effort being made to keep the Academy open, and great support amongst the Sydney cinema-going community, an agreement over a sustainable tenancy with the building's owner was not able to be reached.
More details:
