Nightclub and cinema suddenly shut due to 'building issues'

A cinema and nightclub have been forced to shut after “building issues” were discovered. The Kingswest Centre in Brighton , home to nightclub chain Pryzm and cinema chain Odeon, has had to temporarily close while the issues are rectified. The building is also home to Steinbeck and Shaw, Costa and Ben and Jerry's ice cream.

A spokesman from the club said last night: “Due to some unexpected building issues with the Kingswest complex that are out of our control, we're temporarily closing our doors.

“We're working round the clock with the building owners and council to get this fixed ASAP. We'll keep you posted on when we can welcome you back home to PRYZM.” All upcoming events at the club, in West Street, are on hold and refunds will be given automatically, Pryzm said.

Odeon said: "This cinema is currently closed for repairs. We apologise for any inconvenience caused and look forward to welcoming you back soon." Steinbeck and Shaw also stated that they had to shut for the same reasons regarding the building.
