  • <p>1929 – Advertisement for roller skating at the new Lyric Theatre Rink, Maylands – Western Australia – Swan Express 4 October 1929</p>
            
              <p>MAYLANDS LYRIC THEATRE. – For several years past the Lyric Theatre, in Eighth-avenue, Maylands, has been a most consistent home for many excellent programmes that have been presented on several nights in each week. Recently the management decided to depart from the usual form of entertainment, and substitute roller skating for pictures on several nights during the week. The crowds which have attended the Lyric have been such convincing evidence of the popularity of the roller pastime, that the management recently decided to cut out the picture programmes on every night in the week, except on Saturday. There is at present a quarter-mile skating championship being contested in heats in the Lyric, and the semi-finals ‘and the final are to be run off next Wednesday. The usual high class picture entertainment will be presented on Saturday evening, and the management announce that a fine, orchestral combination, under the direction of Mrs. Merretts, has been secured. The Specialty Four vaudeville turn has also been engaged. Picture patrons are assured of an enjoyable evening at the Lyric on Saturday. For further particulars, the attention of readers is directed to the Lyric special advertisement appearing in this issue.

  • <p>PHOTO – Joe Kilgariff’s mixed business store at Stuart NT, Australia – In 1927 Joe Kilgariff began showing silent movies in an old iron shed that he called a cinema, located just across the road from “The Stuart Arms” hotel. NB: Contrary to legend there are no records of any cinema screenings at “The Stuart Arms” hotel – also – There are no known photographs of Joe Kilgariff’s cinema, which was located opposite “The Stuart Arms”. This information comes from the published recollections & public interviews of Bernard Francis Kilgariff AM, who was a successful Australian politician and a founding member of the Country Liberal Party. Bernie Kilgariff died at the age of 86, on 13 April 2010 – Contributed by Greg Lynch – <script type="text/javascript">
