Capri Theatre

The Capri Theatre is an Art Deco cinema in the Goodwood area with 782 seats distributed across floor and balcony levels. The venue features digital projection, surround sound technology, and houses a functioning Wurlitzer organ installed in 1983.

The building opened in 1941 as Star Theatre and went through several name changes before the Theatre Organ Society acquired it and renamed it Capri Theatre in 1978. This transition marked a shift toward preservation and cultural programming focused on organ music.

The theatre remains an active gathering place where the Theatre Organ Society performs regularly before selected screenings, keeping a musical tradition alive for the community.

The cinema is easily accessible with nearby parking and facilities for all visitors. Check ahead about screenings and organ recitals, as these regular performances affect the overall program schedule.

The theatre houses one of Australia's largest Wurlitzer organs, installed in 1983 and still used for both film accompaniment and live performances. This combination of cinema screening and live organ music makes it a rare destination among contemporary movie venues.
