Regent Theatre 191 Collins Street, Melbourne, VIC 3000 – Re-build after the theatre was destroyed by fire in 1945 - Photo : C Frazer.

The Lord Mayor at the time promised Melburnians that the Regent would be rebuilt, despite the scarcity of building materials brought on by World War II - Contributed by Greg Lynch -
