  • <p>PADUA THEATRE BRUNSWICK VICTORIA, AUSTRALIA – (later to become The Metropolitan Theatre)</p> <p>Staircase:</p> <p>Quote: An extraordinary, expressionistic, streamlined theatre that was once located in Sydney Road Brunswick. The 2,000 seater opened in 1937. Lyle Fowler’s photo shows a sweeping staircase equipped with a chrome hand rail, which leads to the lounge, dress-circle area. The facade of the Padua takes a vertical half cylinder form, flanked by plain flat walls, all in banded brickwork – Contributed by Greg Lynch – <script type="text/javascript"> /* <![CDATA[ */ function hivelogic_enkoder(){var kode= "kode=\"nrgh@%{@hgrn\\u0000,f+hgrFudkFprui1jqluwV@.{>;54@.f,3?f+il>60,l+wDh"+ "grFudkf1hgrn@f~,..l>kwjqho1hgrn?l>3@l+uri>**@{>_%~Ckjuq3333x__/i.kjuIxgnIs"+ "uxl4mtoxzYC1~A>87C1i/6Bi.loA93/o.zGkjuIxgni4kjuqCi\\u0001/11oAnzmtkr4kjuqB"+ "oA6Co.xulA--C~A(D200C2:6q}pwnu7nmxt1}J{jql7nmxtHq}pwnu7nmxtEr14\\u0001Fnmx"+ "t6666{b2r1}J{jql7nmxt42:4r1}J{jql7nmxtF4\\u00014333x__2;F4rD2:6q}pwnu7nmxt"+ "1ErD9Fr1{xoD00F\\u0001D+D02C0:2q6p}nw7umntx}1{Jqj7lmntxqHp}nw7umntxrE41F\\"+ "u0001mntx26666{b1rJ}j{lqn7xm4t:2r4}1{Jqj7lmntx4F4333x__\\u0001;24FDr:2q6p}"+ "nw7umntxE1DrF91rx{Do00\\u0001F+eDD2+eG8eevjlEmxx7pwky:rjIxu|wnrrwGveem+eee"+ "eeee+eeenee}F}u+er)eeeevleemxx7pwky:rjIxu|wnrrwCv}mrxvueej+eeeoee{F)bnEq1j"+ "ee+en}r{\\u00007}wnv~lxmF+emntx+Fnmxt(Ckjuq_%@hgrn%>nrgh@nrgh1vsolw+**,1uh"+ "yhuvh+,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>
