Colour photograph showing the auditorium of the Hippodrome in Bristol. Taken from the dress circle stage left looking across the auditorium, it shows six boxes below the upper circle slips; with the dress circle and upper circle to the left; the stage, proscenium, house tabs (drawn) and orchestra pit to the right; the raked stalls below and a Baroque style domed ceiling partly in shot above. There are three boxes on each level, divided by giant fluted Doric columns that carry the second balcony slips. The elliptically arched proscenium is set in a deep, panelled reveal with niches at the sides.
