The building is now a barber shop(Sweeney Todd Barber’s Shop), a co-working shop(Maker + Co Collective) and a gift shop(The Green Depot). The front of the overhead verandah now has writen on it 73-77 Victoria Street, Lyric Theatre(fmr) Bunbury.
The car park section(possibly the former gardens site?) is also a bus terminus for use by Tranperth buses running between the hall and Perth, or Optus Stadium(special events use).
Hamilton Hill Hall(now called Memorial Hall) was extended and repainted and the bricks repointed in 2008. Now used for community use and live theatre(live theatre called Phoenix Theatre).
The Forrest Cinema screened the Australian premiere of “Crocodile Dundee”. Named after explorer and Western Australia’s first premier Sir John Forrest GCMG, and his brother(also an explorer) Alexander Forrest CMG.
The My Fair Lady Theatee, Palladium Theatre, and Embassy Theatre might have been seen in the Australian tv series “Saturday night at the movies”(available on dvd).
Looks small for a drive-in theatre(unless some of the ramps have been demolished, along with the bio box and ticket booth?). Is that possibly the snack bar on the north side of the ramps(top of photo), the two fences seem to come apart there(walkway to and from the snack bar building?)?
I think the outdoor seating near the screen is common in northern Western Australia(and maybe also northern Queensland(and Northern Territory in the past too?) too?))?
The building there now is a dentist(Preston Smiles), telephone store(Eastern Telecom)(now empty and for lease), and a cash loans store(Cash stop)(now empty and for lease).
50 speakers were stolen from this drive-in.
