Metro Theatre 88 Hindley Street, Adelaide, SA - 1938
This once beautiful Art Deco style theatre opened as Metro Theatre and was built for MGM. It was only MGM Metro Theatre in Australia to be equipped with fittings sent from the USA, including heating units (which are certainly not required in the heat that Adelaide normally has!). The Metro Theatre was designed by noted American theatre architect Thomas W. Lamb, in association with local architect F. Kenneth Milne.
