 The screen was at the front entrance to the hall. The stage area was the dress circle, and as the East family was fairly prolific, had most of the seats there on sparrow’s tickets, whilst the general public sat at floor level.
-During the early 1940s 'Premier Talkies' of Riverton commenced the showing of pictures at the Mallala Institute. Mr Len Mullins was the projectionist, who with his assistant and a small panel van travelled the country areas and presented their film programmes on a weekly basis. Their equipment was portable, and each week, usually on a Friday, they would arrive mid morning and set up their projectors and sound system for the evening screening.

 In 1946 these projectors, which showed standard 35mm feature films, were installed in the projection room at the Institute and were used for showing the films on Saturday night until the closure of picture nights.
