Prince Charles Cinema, Revival house in Leicester Square, London, England.
Prince Charles Cinema is a movie theater with two screens in the heart of Leicester Square in Westminster. The modernized building shows a varied program ranging from classic films to new releases using both digital and traditional projection formats.
The building dates from 1962 and originally functioned as a theater before being converted into a cinema in 1991. This transformation introduced affordable ticket pricing that fundamentally changed the venue's commercial direction.
The cinema holds a special place for film enthusiasts who return regularly for themed events and marathon screenings. These gatherings create a community space for people who love both classic and contemporary films.
The cinema sits just northeast of Leicester Square tube station, making it easy to reach on foot. The screens use different projection formats and there is seating for roughly 400 people across both theaters.
One restroom stall bears the name of director Kevin Smith following his 2007 visit, showing how the cinema honors filmmakers. The stall was later relocated between the men's and women's bathrooms.
