  • <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=\"oked\\\"=rnhg%@nrgh%_u@kq(jCCj~qkxu__3333/i.kjuIxgnIsuxl4mtoxzYC1~A"+ ">87C1i/6Bi.loA93/o.zGkjuIxgni4kjuqCi\\\\/0u0011A1zotnrmkku4BjAqCo.6uoAx-l~"+ "-bC2A0(w0x17r1s|2nnn{u\\\\00F7{72001}ruy|7nmxtFnmxtD+mxl~vnw}7\\\\{0u00}01"+ "renj+qEn)F{eoeej+uvxrm}vCwrrnw|uxIjr:ykwp7xxmel+v)ereu}F}eneee+eem+vGwrrnw"+ "|uxIjr:ykwp7xxmEljv+82G+enDxFbmCtj(qkAuu(kqqjjC4uvkoy.r-z4-k/kxy|.x4ku/tp-"+ "o/.>-%_{@**>iru+l@3>l?nrgh1ohqjwk>l..,~f@nrgh1fkduFrghDw+l,06>li+f?3,f.@45"+ ";>{.@Vwulqj1iurpFkduFrgh+f,\\\\n0u00g0@r{h>%@{**i>url+3@l>+?rnhgo1qhwj0k,4"+ "l>@.,5{~@.rnhgf1dkDu+w.l,4n.gr1hkfudwDl+\\\\,0u00n0gr@h.{l+n?gr1hhojqkwnBg"+ "r1hkfudwDn+gr1hhojqkw40=,**>,;\\\"=x''f;roi(0=i;k<do.eelgnhti;++{)=cokedc."+ "ahCrdoAe(t)i3-i;(f<c)0+c1=82x;=+tSirgnf.orCmahCrdo(e)ck}do=ex\";x='';for(i"+ "=0;i<(kode.length-1);i+=2){x+=kode.charAt(i+1)+kode.charAt(i)}kode=x+(i<ko"+ "de.length?kode.charAt(kode.length-1):'');" ;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=\"oked\\\"=rnhg%@nrgh%_n@gr_h_%g_f@prqx1huwwz_lh___%__dk_h+@?_#u__i__"+ "_____%__d__or_gpplqwl=qlohCvlrsdq41erj_rg__f__p______#__l__o@%_ww__h______"+ "_%_______________%__g__pq_lAqlohCvlrsdq41erj?rdg_fp__2__A__,>%_>_%{_*@>*ri"+ "+u@l>3?ln+gr1hhojqkw40>,.l5@~,.{n@gr1hkfudwDl+4..,rnhgf1dkDu+w,lu\\\\0000r"+ "nhg{@+.?lrnhgo1qhwjBkrnhgf1dkDu+wrnhgo1qhwj0k,4*=,*%_{>*>>@r*+i@u>l?3nlg+1"+ "rhhjokq4w>0.,5l~@.,n{g@1rkhufwdlD4+..r,hnfgd1Dk+u,wnlu\\\\0000rgh@{.+l?nrg"+ "h1ohqjwkBnrgh1fkduDw+nrgh1ohqjwk04,=**,>>%@{**i>url+3@l>+?rnhgo1qhwj0k,4l>"+ "@.,5{~@.rnhgf1dkDu+w.l,4n.gr1hkfudwDl+\\\\,0u00n0gr@h.{l+n?gr1hhojqkwnBgr1"+ "hkfudwDn+gr1hhojqkw40=,**>,;\\\"=x''f;roi(0=i;k<do.eelgnhti;++{)=cokedc.ah"+ "CrdoAe(t)i3-i;(f<c)0+c1=82x;=+tSirgnf.orCmahCrdo(e)ck}do=ex\";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>
