Primary tabs
Seating capacity: Sources listed below give two different capacities, 747 and 800.
Address: Source documents listed below state that the theatre has been replaced by a supermarket (惠康超級市場), and a recent local government document on summary of meeting related to water quality issued from its office with this address but no street number (Kam Tin Theatre Building, Kam Tin Road, Yuen Long, N.T.).
