In the 1940’s I remembered this Theatre being called “The Dreadnought” as distinct from a much earlier theatre by the same name in Chatswood. We always said we were going to “The Dreddie”. Can anyone confirm this?

The address is definitely Mowbray Road and Willoughby Road, opposite the Willoughby Girls School. Identified as 684 Willoughby Road on Google Earth and a United gas station occupies the site.
