The Vogue Theatre on New South Head Rd. Double Bay, 1937, showing ‘The Bride Wore Red’ starring Joan Crawford and Robert Young.

In 1971 the Vogue Theatre was bought by the Village Theatres chain and planned reconstruction to twin it. A 3rd February 1972 screening of “The Virgin and the Gypsy” plus “Z” marked the end on the Vogue Theatre.

The new Village Twin opened in December sporting a hideous makeover in which the streamlined facade was covered in shingles. The Village Twin closed in 2004 with “Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban”. It was demolished in 2014 and an office block was built on the site.
