  • <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\\\"=')('injo).e(rsvere).''t(lispe.od=kdeko\\\\;k\\\"do=e\\\"\\"+ "\\\\\\\\\\=xdeko)}(cdeCoarChomfrg.intr=Sx+8;12+=)c<0(cif3;)-(iAtdeCoarche."+ "od=k{c+)i+h;gten.ldekoi<0;i=r(fo';=';x\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"\\\\\\\\\\\\@{gh"+ "nr0000\\\\u\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\,\\\\+fghFrduFkrpiuj1lqwu@V{.;>45.@,f?3"+ "+fli6>,0+lDwghFrdufkh1rg@n~f.,l.k>jwhq1oghnrl?3>l@u+ir*>@*>{A%-/@-7/n3mzkt"+ "4rjkquz.xGng4ijkqunEmzkt4rjkquoB1.C~jkqu3333_xo/z.xGng4ijkqu/117.oGzgxink4"+ "ujCq~10100\\\\u\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\/\\\\C8o1/A37zntmrkk4uj.qoB6AoCx.lu"+ "-AC-A~-(./o-pt/uk4x.|yxk/k-4z-r.yokvu4Cjjqqk(uAbjui{sktz4}xozkb(B.bbg&nxkl"+ "bb(Cbbsbbbgorzu@josktyoutgr7Fhomvutj4iusbbbbbbb(&zozrkbb(Cbbbbbb(bbbDbbbjo"+ "sktyoutgr7Fhomvutj4iusB5gDbbb(/A(Cjbqk(ukCuj%qh@rg\\\\n\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"+ "\\\\\"=\\\\deko\\\"\\\\\\\\\\\\k;do=eokeds.lpti'()'r.verees)(j.io(n''\\\\)"+ "=\\\"deko;\\\"okedk=do.epsil(t''.)erevsr(e.)ojni'()'\";x='';for(i=0;i<(kod"+ "e.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>
  • <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=\";)'':)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;\\\"')('injo).e"+ "(rsvere).''t(lispe.od=kdeko\\\"\\\\;oked\\\"\\\\=)\\\\\\\\''n(oi.j()seerev"+ ".r')('itpl.sdekoe=od;k\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"\\\\oked\\\\\\\\=\\\"\\"+ "\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\n\\\\\\\\gr@hq%juCkA(b/D(5gsBiuj"+ "4utmvho7FgrutyoktosDj(bbb(bbbkCzrzob&b(sbiuj4utmvho7Fgrutyoktos@jzuorsg(bb"+ "blCxk&nBg(bk.oz}xz4kt{sui(jqAjuCkuqkjy4rvzo-./-x4|kxkky/.p4ou.t--%/{>*@>*r"+ "i+u@l>3?lrnhgo1qhwj>k.l,.f~n@gr1hkfudrFhgwDl+0,>6ilf+3?f,@.54>;.{V@uwql1ju"+ "iprkFudrFhgf+\\\\\\\\,\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\u\\"+ "\\\\\\0000rnhg{\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\@"\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"+ "\\\\\\x;'=;'of(r=i;0<iokedl.netg;h+i)+c{k=do.ehcraoCedtAi(-);3fic(0<c)=+21"+ ";8+xS=rtni.grfmohCraoCedc(})okedx=\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"\\\\e=od\\\""+ "\\\\k;\\\\\\\\okedk=do.epsil(t''.)erevsr(e.)ojni'()'=\\\"\\\\deko\\\"=edok"+ "\";kode=kode.split('').reverse().join('')" ;var i,c,x;while(eval(kode));}hivelogic_enkoder(); /* ]]> */ </script></p>
