Was there a Carleton movie theatre on Parliament Street as well (1940’s)? Also the Bluebell.
Hi William, There was a Bluebell Theatre, later called The Gay Theatre, on Parliament St, just south of Dundas St E. A portion of the theatre is visible in the archive photo on our website at https://www.torontojourney416.com/dundas-parliament-se-then-now/
I remember both the Bluebell & Carleton cinemas as well as the Parliament & Eclipse? Cinemas on Parliament St.
The Parliament and Eclipse were located between the Bluebell and the Carleton Cinemas.
Today, in November 2025 Carlton cinema building still exists as a dance school, Located on the east side of Parliament , just north of Carleton Street
