  • <p>Regent Theatre 191 Collins Street, Melbourne, VIC 3000 - Re-opening 1947 with new square proscenium.</p> <p>The Regent Theatre in Collins street, Melbourne was originally designed in the late 1920s by Cedric Ballantyne.</p> <p>*Catastrophic fire</p> <p>A major rebuild was required in 1945-7 after a catastrophic fire gutted the building. Both Gordon Murphy and Reg Appleford supervised this, a difficult task in a time of shortage of materials and skilled labour, because of the War. It re-opened in December 1947 and operated as a single screen cinema (together with the Plaza downstairs it catered for 3300 patrons) for the next 23 years - Contributed by Greg Lynch - <script type="text/javascript"> /* <![CDATA[ */ function hivelogic_enkoder(){var kode= "kode=\"oked\\\"=kode\\\"\\\\r=hn%g*@+,l*mq,rh1u+yvuh,h*1w*o+vlhsr1@ggnnh_r"+ "n>g%@r%h__n_gr_h__%___u_k@(q/j(CgABbuD45tsviojFurmtho7tgsujybkbobDb(Cbr(ob"+ "&k(zbzub4btsviojFurmtho7tgsujyukrog@bzboCsk(nbglbx.&zBx(4ktos}izjkA{uuk(qq"+ "jj4Cvuok.y-r4zk-k/yx.|4xukt/-p/o>._-__%___{_*@>*ri+u@l>3?lrnhgo1qhwj>k.l,."+ "f~n@gr1hkfudrFhgwDl+0,>6ilf+3?f,@.54>;.{V@uwql1juiprkFudrFhgf+\\\\,n\\\\u0"+ "000gr@h{_%__>{@**>iru+l@3>l?+nrgh1ohqjwk04,>l.@5,~{.@nrgh1fkduDw+l.4,.nrgh"+ "1fkduDw+l,\\\\u0\\\\00r0hn{g+@?.rlhnogq1whBjrkhnfgd1Dk+urwhnogq1wh0j,k*4,="+ "_*@>g%nh>rr%hnngg@1rshlv+o*w1*h,huvy+u1hr,qm*l,+;*\\\"\\\\x='';for(i=0;i<k"+ "ode.length;i++){c=kode.charCodeAt(i)-3;if(c<0)c+=128;x+=String.fromCharCod"+ "e(c)}kode=\\\"xx;'=;'of(r=i;0<ik(do.eelgnht1-;)+i2={)+xk=do.ehcratAi(1++)o"+ "kedc.ahAr(t)ik}do=e+xi(k<do.eelgnhtk?do.ehcratAk(do.eelgnht1-:)'';)\";x=''"+ ";for(i=0;i<(kode.length-1);i+=2){x+=kode.charAt(i+1)+kode.charAt(i)}kode=x"+ "+(i<kode.length?kode.charAt(kode.length-1):'');" ;var i,c,x;while(eval(kode));}hivelogic_enkoder(); /* ]]> */ </script></p>
