              <p>Staircase:</p>
            
              <p>Quote: An extraordinary, expressionistic, streamlined theatre that was once located in Sydney Road Brunswick. The 2,000 seater opened in 1937. Lyle Fowler’s photo shows a sweeping staircase equipped with a chrome hand rail, which leads to the lounge, dress-circle area. The facade of the Padua takes a vertical half cylinder form, flanked by plain flat walls, all in banded brickwork – Contributed by Greg Lynch – <script type="text/javascript">
