Colour photograph showing the auditorium of a Gala bingo hall, formerly the Empire, in Burnley. Taken from the stage left side of the dress circle, it looks across the auditorium towards two superimposed stage right boxes framed between Corinthian columns. The dress circle and gods are to the left, with a segmentally arched proscenium and stage, with its false ceiling halfway up, to the right. There is restrained plasterwork throughout, including on the flat, panelled ceiling above.
