The Broadway Theatre, Peterborough originally opened as the Odeon Cinema in 1937. Two months later the Embassy Theatre opened on the same street. A strange quirk of fate has seen the Embassy Theatre being converted into a cinema and then a pub and now shops and a nightclub, and the Odeon Cinema being converted into a Theatre and renamed the Broadway Theatre. The Odeon Cinema was a successful venue for nearly 50 years until it closed in 1991 and fell into disrepair, but in 1997 Peter Boizot MBE bought the building as part of a larger scheme which included a restaurant and art gallery and converted the former Cinema into a modern Theatre so that in 1992 the new Broadway Theatre was opened to the public.
