Hoyts Circle Theatre 519 High Street, Preston, VIC -

In 1938, Hoyts commissioned architects Cowper, Murphy and Applegate! to design what was to become the Circle Theatre in Preston.

The Circle Theatre featured a moulded plaster ceiling which had overlapping curves throughout, broken only a by a central straight panel with three fluted lines. The walls contained circular patterns in the paintwork going from ceiling to just above seat height and contained decorative plaster mouldings within them.
