The Enmore theatre has a remaining architectural fabric that includes elements of art nouveau, Edwardian, art moderne and various art deco styles. This mix of styles can be seen in the decorative elements associated with the lighting.
Built by the Szarka brothers and opened to the public as a photoplay theatre in 1912. It is the longest-running live music venue still operational in New South Wales. Hoyts purchased the building in 1936 from the Szarka brothers and after extensive modifications to the building it emerged as a ‘large art deco show palace’.
