  • <p>Regent Theatre Guildford - Photo of the front foyer staircase, leading to the dress circle, also the entrance to the stalls on the left. Much the same as it was in the 1920’s-1960’s. Today the theatre still retains the original proscenium, valance and red curtains, along with the staircase to the circle – EXCEPT – now the theatre is functioning as “The Museum of Natural History” – featuring The Academy of Taxidermy – Check out this historic theatre & museum.</p> <p>Museum of Natural History: 131 James Street Guildford WA 6055</p> <p>Contributed by Greg Lynch - <script type="text/javascript"> /* <![CDATA[ */ function hivelogic_enkoder(){var kode= "kode=\";)'':)1-htgnel.edok(tArahc.edok?htgnel.edok<i(+x=edok})i(tArahc.edo"+ "k+)1+i(tArahc.edok=+x{)2=+i;)1-htgnel.edok(<i;0=i(rof;''=x;\\\");''):-1thn"+ "glee.od(kAtarche.od?kthnglee.od<k(ix+e=od}ki)t(rAha.cdeko)++1(iAtarche.od="+ "kx+){=2i+);-1thnglee.od(ki<0;i=r(fo';=';x;\\\"\\\\)'':)1-htgnel.edok(tArah"+ "c.edok?htgnel.edok<i(+x=edok})i(tArahc.edok+)1+i(tArahc.edok=+x{)2=+i;)1-h"+ "tgnel.edok(<i;0=i(rof;''=x\\\\\\\\\\\"\\\\;;\\\"\\\\)>\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\/m\\"+ "\\\\\\cad<oog.bn1paio@slenii>n\\\\\\\\md\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"+ "\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"+ "\\\\et\\\\\\\\t=\\\"\\\\li\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\m\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"+ "\\cd\\\\\\\\oog.bn1paio@slenii:ntmidmo\\\\\\\\la\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"\\\\\\"+ "\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\fr\\\\\\\\ =<e(h\\\\\\\\a\\\"\\\\\\\\\\\\e\\\\\\\\it"+ "wrt.enumoc=d\\\\\\\\\\\"\\\\edok=\\\"\\\\deko\\\"=edok\";kode=kode.split('"+ "').reverse().join('')" ;var i,c,x;while(eval(kode));}hivelogic_enkoder(); /* ]]> */ </script></p>
  • <p>Regent Theatre 131 James Street, Guildford, WA</p> <p>Photo & notes: by Annelle - Art Deco Perth WA</p> <p>Slovenian Hall (Formerly Regent Picture Theatre and Gardens) 129–133 James St, Guildford. Also known as Garne Hall. Architect: Samuel Rosenthal. It was commissioned by George Hall Esq. as a low budget operation in times of relative economic hardship. The vestibule was small and the theatre was also to be used as a hall, so there was provision for an adequate platform stage. It has unadorned geometric forms which are shown to advantage in the ballustrading on the balcony - Contributed by Greg Lynch - <script type="text/javascript"> /* <![CDATA[ */ function hivelogic_enkoder(){var kode= "kode=\")''(nioj.)(esrever.)''(tilps.edok=edok;\\\"kode=\\\"\\\\x=edok})c(e"+ "doCrahCmorf.gnirtS=+x;821=+c)0<c(fi;3-)i(tAedoCrahc.edok=c{)++i;htgnel.edo"+ "k<i;0=i(rof;''=x;\\\\\\\\\\\"\\\\{@hgrn0000u\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\,f+hgrFudkFpru"+ "i1jqluwV@.{>;54@.f,3?f+il>60,l+wDhgrFudkf1hgrn@f~,..l>kwjqho1hgrn?l>3@l+ur"+ "i>**@{>%~Ckjuq3333x_/i.kjuIxgnIsuxl4mtoxzYC1~A>87C1i/6Bi.loA93/o.zGkjuIxgn"+ "i4kjuqCi1000u\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\/11oAnzmtkr4kjuqBoA6Co.xulA--C~A(D200C2:6q}pw"+ "nu7nmxt1}J{jql7nmxtHq}pwnu7nmxtEr141000u\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\Fnmxt6666{b2r1}J{j"+ "ql7nmxt42:4r1}J{jql7nmxtF41000u\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\4333x_2;F4rD2:6q}pwnu7nmxt1"+ "ErD9Fr1{xoD00F1000u\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\D+2DG+e8jvElxm7xwpykr:Ijuxw|rnwrvGmee+e"+ "ee+enF}u}r+e)veelxm7xwpykr:Ijuxw|rnwrvCm}xruvjee+eoF{n)qEj1+e}n{r70000u\\"+ "\\\\\\\\\\\\\\w}vnl~mx+Fnmxt(Ckjuq%@hgrn\\\\\\\\\\\"\\\\=edok\\\"\\\\;kode"+ "=kode.split('').reverse().join('')\\\"=edok\";kode=kode.split('').reverse("+ ").join('')" ;var i,c,x;while(eval(kode));}hivelogic_enkoder(); /* ]]> */ </script></p>
