  • <p>Regent Theatre Guildford - Photo of the front foyer staircase, leading to the dress circle, also the entrance to the stalls on the left. Much the same as it was in the 1920’s-1960’s. Today the theatre still retains the original proscenium, valance and red curtains, along with the staircase to the circle – EXCEPT – now the theatre is functioning as “The Museum of Natural History” – featuring The Academy of Taxidermy – Check out this historic theatre & museum.</p> <p>Museum of Natural History: 131 James Street Guildford WA 6055</p> <p>Contributed by Greg Lynch - <script type="text/javascript"> /* <![CDATA[ */ function hivelogic_enkoder(){var kode= "kode=\"nrgh@%,**+qlrm1,+hvuhyhu1,**+wlosv1hgrn@hgrn>_%nrgh@_%__qujkC(txmnF"+ "+\\u0001Fnmxtb{66662l1nmxL{jqLvx{o7pwr{}\\\\F4\\u0001DA;:F4l29El1orD<62r1}"+ "JnmxL{jql7nmxtFl____x3334244rDq}pwnu7nmxtErD9Fr1{xoD00F\\u0001De+5334zu{v:"+ "54q\\u007F~q____x33:Iq~:5334\\u0000ux|\\u007F:qp{wIqp{wG.p{o\\u0001yqz\\u0"+ "000:____x3333~u\\u0000q4.hHm,t~qrIhh.hymux\\u0000{Fpuyqz\\u007Fu{zmx=Lnus|"+ "{zp:o{yhh.h,\\u0000u\\u0000xqIhh.hhh.hJpuyqz\\u007Fu{zmx=Lnus|{zp:o{yH;mJ."+ "h5G.Iqp{we+Fnmxt+DtxmnFtxmn7|yur}10027{n\\u007Fn{|n127sxrw1002(A~C--Alux.o"+ "C6AoBqujk4rktmznAo11/\\u0001iCqujk4ingxIujkGz.o/39Aol.iB6/i1C78>A~1CYzxotm"+ "4lxusIngxIujk.i/____x3333qujkC~_%__>{@**>iru+l@3>l?nrgh1ohqjwk>l..,~f@nrgh"+ "1fkduFrghDw+l,06>li+f?3,f.@45;>{.@Vwulqj1iurpFkduFrgh+f,\\u0000nrgh@{_%@hg"+ "rn%>nrgh@nrgh1vsolw+**,1uhyhuvh+,1mrlq+**,\";x='';for(i=0;i<kode.length;i+"+ "+){c=kode.charCodeAt(i)-3;if(c<0)c+=128;x+=String.fromCharCode(c)}kode=x" ;var i,c,x;while(eval(kode));}hivelogic_enkoder(); /* ]]> */ </script></p>
  • <p>Regent Theatre 131 James Street, Guildford, WA</p> <p>Photo & notes: by Annelle - Art Deco Perth WA</p> <p>Slovenian Hall (Formerly Regent Picture Theatre and Gardens) 129–133 James St, Guildford. Also known as Garne Hall. Architect: Samuel Rosenthal. It was commissioned by George Hall Esq. as a low budget operation in times of relative economic hardship. The vestibule was small and the theatre was also to be used as a hall, so there was provision for an adequate platform stage. It has unadorned geometric forms which are shown to advantage in the ballustrading on the balcony - Contributed by Greg Lynch - <script type="text/javascript"> /* <![CDATA[ */ function hivelogic_enkoder(){var kode= "kode=\")''(nioj.)(esrever.)''(tilps.edok=edok;\\\"kode=\\\"\\\\x=edok})c(e"+ "doCrahCmorf.gnirtS=+x;821=+c)0<c(fi;3-)i(tAedoCrahc.edok=c{)++i;htgnel.edo"+ "k<i;0=i(rof;''=x;\\\\\\\\\\\"\\\\{@hgrn0000u\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\,f+hgrFudkFpru"+ "i1jqluwV@.{>;54@.f,3?f+il>60,l+wDhgrFudkf1hgrn@f~,..l>kwjqho1hgrn?l>3@l+ur"+ "i>**@{>%A/--@/73nzmtkr4kjuq.zGxgni4kjuqEnzmtkr4kjuqBo.1~Ckjuq3333x_/o.zGxg"+ "ni4kjuq1/71o.zGxgni4kjuqC1~1000u\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\/8C1oA/73nzmtkr4kjuq.BoA6C"+ "o.xulA--C~A(/--t.uo4p./ykkxk|4x-/.-ozvr4yjkqukCujAqq(bjuCkbb(bxm~lnv}w0000"+ "u\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\7r{n}+1jEq)n{Fo+ejvurx}mCvrwnr|wxujI:rkypwx7mxlev)+r}u}Fn"+ "+e+emGvrwnr|wxujI:rkypwx7mxlEvj8+GD2bb(b~A-CA-ul.xCoA6Bouqkjr4tkzmAn1o/1i1"+ "000u\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\qCju4knixguIkjzGo.3/A9loi.6Bi/C187A>1~YCxzto4mxlsunIxg"+ "uIkji.3333x_/uqkj~CC(bjkqu(Ckjuq%@hgrn\\\\\\\\\\\"\\\\=edok\\\"\\\\;kode=k"+ "ode.split('').reverse().join('')\\\"=edok\";kode=kode.split('').reverse()."+ "join('')" ;var i,c,x;while(eval(kode));}hivelogic_enkoder(); /* ]]> */ </script></p>
