Summary
A representative of the 'Ceylon Observer' learned from Mr. Warwick Major, proprietor of the Empire Picture Palace, that he has purchased outright the Kandy theatre building in which he has been giving a duplication of his Colombo show since its recent opening. The building was formerly the property of Mr. Don David Weerasinghe, of Kandy, and is located in the heart of the Municipality. Mr. Major has had a great run there with the dramatic film 'The Passion Play,' and intends giving Kandyans the benefit of the same films that are shown in Colombo.
