Another victim of Brisbane’s rebuilding of the City centre which saw the demise of all its theatres. The WGT was the largest when it opened in 1924 and was very much ahead of its time in view of the unusually large and ultra comfortable seats which were located in the balcony. With the opening of the George Cinema in the mid 60’s the owners, Greater Union Theatres, transferred their major releases to the new venue leaving the WGT with mostly short run releases.
