Assembly rooms theatre, Colonial theatre building in Ooty, India
The Assembly Rooms Theatre stands as a prominent cinema venue in Ooty, featuring both traditional stage performances and contemporary film screenings.
British administrators established the Assembly Rooms Theatre in 1901, making it the first cinema hall in the Nilgiris region of Tamil Nadu.
The theatre serves as a cultural center where residents experience entertainment through various Tamil movies and stage productions throughout the year.
