In 1911 a theatre called the Electric Cinema opened in Portobello Road as one of the first repertory cinemas in England, eventually resurrected as a luxury cinema.


Not to be confused with a number of other companies known by this name, e.g. The Electric Theatre [1], founded in an abandoned electricity works building in Guildford, Surrey, England, in 1997 or the Electric Theatre Company[2], a non-profit, regional, Equity theatre company located in Scranton, Pennsylvania.
