THE ROCKY HORROR SHOW found a venue in Fitzroy, The Regent Palace. (Previously HSV 7’s Tele-theatre & Hoyts Regent Theatre Fitzroy)
Photo - By Jon Fabian
A true Movie Palace, with an ornate foyer and an immense auditorium with a balcony and close to 3000 seats. The set, the largest ever built for the original concept, spanned the room starting at the edge of the balcony, and producing the effect of a single level cinema with seating for 700.
The actual screen and rest of the auditorium lay behind the false proscenium and screen of the set, giving the illusion of no set, but a cinema under demolition.
