The Saraton Theatre, 95 Prince
Street Grafton, is a fine intact example of a
two-level cinema built in 1926 and internally
remodelled in 1940. The Saraton Theatre is of state
significance as a rare surviving example of a
two-level cinema, which is still operating. The
Saraton is still under the management of the Notaras
family, who built the theatre in 1926. The Saraton has
featured prominently in the social lives of the
community, being the first theatre built in Grafton,
and continues to entertain the community as the town's
only cinema. The Saraton Theatre is a major
streetscape element along Prince Street, forming the
centre piece of a row of two storey shops in a
modified Spanish styling.
