    Colour photograph showing the proscenium at the former Hippodrome in Derby. Taken from the gods, it shows a rectangular proscenium decorated in rich Baroque plasterwork, surmounted by a big segment-headed panel framing a garland. There is a box either side at dress circle level framed by giant pilasters carrying a serpentine pediment. The former theatre has been decorated in red and green and is in use as a bingo hall.
