The Elysium Cinema Swansea.The Elysium was opened as a cinema in 1914 and operated until 1960 when High Street saw a lot of its old businesses move to the newly built city centre. It was converted into a bingo hall until it finally closed in the mid 1990's. It is in a very bad state inside and is under constant threat of demolition. | The Elysium Cinema.Home to many a a flying rat, the sorry state of the circle area of the Elysium. The false ceiling to the bingo below can be seen stretching from the front of the circle to the stage area. |
