Exterior Renovation

Since 1947, when the Paradise first opened its doors, the theatre has been repainted a few times, along with minor alterations to the front entrance. As this photo shows, there were 4 doors opening to the street – 2 middle doors for the theatre itself, and one on either side for rented shop spaces.
