Steep stairs lead to the cinema auditoria. The contrast between the sleek, dark style of the foyers and the vivid profusion of light and colour in the cinemas intensifies the sense of escapism and fantasy common to much cinema design. The Blue Room is the larger and more ornate of the two cinemas. The most obvious feature is the vaulted ceiling, a plaster moonscape with craters of varying depths which conceal red, blue and green lights. Larger, shallower craters are interspersed with the light craters creating a rich and complex surface. There are 294 light globes on three circuits, two of which are currently used. A variety of lighting effects can be achieved using these different circuits and the coloured globes. A pelmet which conceals recessed lighting covers the intersection between ceiling and wall and turquoise woollen drapes fall to meet the carpet which comes about one metre up the wall. The original carpet with an op-art, circular dot pattern of blue and brown remains throughout the cinema. The curve of the vault frames the screen which has several layers of turquoise wool drapes forming the curtain and surrounds. Architectural drawings from the 1970s refurbishment reveal that the plaster ceilings are attached to the bottom chord of the existing curved timber truss.
The auditorium has two distinct levels of seating, the floor of the front section gently slopes towards the screen whilst the floor of the back section is steeply raked. The seating throughout the cinema is upholstered in blue vinyl and seating in the back section has circular drink holders integrated into the armrests. Timber screens of horizontal panelling divide areas of seating and a solid balustrade of similar detailing runs along the edge of the void at the top of the entry stairs. A small niche containing a seat for the usher is located within this, a reminder of that period when cinemas employed ushers to show people to their seats and keep an eye on them throughout the show. An intercom in this niche is still used to enable communication between staff members.
