The original theatre at the site was the Kwun Tong Theatre 觀塘戲院 with a seating capacity of 1,603 (1,005 and 598 first class). It started operating on October 9, 1970, and was later renamed Life Theatre 富都戲院 on May 1, 1979. A renovation in 1997 reduced its seating capacity to 462. Life Theatre was closed on April 11, 2004, and a good part of the retired theatre's exterior remains standing today.
