The New Oxford Theatre 155 Oxford Street, Leederville, WA - Opening night program March 2, 1927.

The New Oxford Theatre was designed by architect S.B. Rosenthal and constructed by E.A. Allwood. It was opened on 2 March 1927 by the Minister for Works, A. McCallum before a capacity audience of 1,286. The opening programme included vaudeville, music by the New Oxford Orchestra, a short play, some comedy, and a special appearance by Miss Australia, Beryl Mills. Silent movies were shown to the accompaniment of a piano or organ, with the first piano being lent by the Billy Edwards Music. A special highlight of the night was the screening of a Stereoscopiks (3D) novelty film. Figures step right from the screen into the audience - Contributed by Greg Lynch -
