Commemoration Plaque

Photo - Zigzig20s

A special plaque was created to celebrate the Golden Era of cinema in Rockingham. The plaque was placed on the Rockingham Waterfront Pioneer Rotary Walk in Rockingham on the 20 April 2014 – Right or wrong this is what’s written on it –

During the 1940’s-60’s Syd Hart started a theatre at the Jazz Hall next to the Rockingham Hotel. When Jack Bidstrup took over he called it The New Century.

He also operated The Melody Theatre in a hall at Safety Bay??

The hall was purchased by Dave Sparkes from the Mandogalup settlement. An open-air theatre operated at the back of The New Century.“ –
