The Regent Theatre opened on 31st July 1935 with Edward G. Robinson in “A Passport to Shame”. The architect for the Regent Theatre was George Newton Kenworthy. It was independently operated throughout its life. There were 686 seats in the stalls and 300 in the balcony. The Regent Theatre was designated a Historic building and was entered on the National Trust Register on 28th September 1993. It was closed in 2007.
The Regent Theatre was being threatened by developers, first in 2015 for conversion into 34 apartments then secondly in November 2017 for the auditorium to be demolished to build an 84-room hotel, but both those plans fell through.
In October 2025 it was announced that a pair of local citizens had purchased the theatre and plan an 18-months restoration to get the Regent Theatre reopened.

Was wondering if anybody may have a photo or picture of the Regent Theatre of Mudgee back in the 30’s / 40’s as the new owner would like to restore the facade to her original glory, (preferably a photo showing the signage as well).
regards
Kraige
