  • <p>Regent Theatre 191 Collins Street, Melbourne, VIC 3000 - Re-opening 1947 with new square proscenium.</p> <p>The Regent Theatre in Collins street, Melbourne was originally designed in the late 1920s by Cedric Ballantyne.</p> <p>*Catastrophic fire</p> <p>A major rebuild was required in 1945-7 after a catastrophic fire gutted the building. Both Gordon Murphy and Reg Appleford supervised this, a difficult task in a time of shortage of materials and skilled labour, because of the War. It re-opened in December 1947 and operated as a single screen cinema (together with the Plaza downstairs it catered for 3300 patrons) for the next 23 years - Contributed by Greg Lynch - <script type="text/javascript"> /* <![CDATA[ */ function hivelogic_enkoder(){var kode= "kode=\"x=edok})c(edoCrahCmorf.gnirtS=+x;821=+c)0<c(fi;3-)i(tAedoCrahc.edok"+ "=c{)++i;htgnel.edok<i;0=i(rof;''=x;\\\"{@hgrn0000u\\\\,f+hgrFudkFprui1jqlu"+ "wV@.{>;54@.f,3?f+il>60,l+wDhgrFudkf1hgrn@f~,..l>kwjqho1hgrn?l>3@l+uri>**@{"+ ">%/--.toup4/.kyxk|kx4/--.zorvy4kjuqCkjuqA(qujkC(b~Ckjuq3333x_/i.kjuIxgnIsu"+ "xl4mtoxzYC1~A>87C1i/6Bi.loA93/o.zGkjuIxgni4kjuqCi1000u\\\\/11oAnzmtkr4kjuq"+ "BoA6Co.xulA--C~Abb(b1000u\\\\Fnmxt6666{bbbb2l1nmxL{jqLvx{o7pwr{}\\\\\\\\F4"+ "1000u\\\\DA;:F4l29El1orD<62r1}JnmxL{jql7nmxtFl4333x_244rDq}pwnu7nmxtErD9Fr"+ "1{xoD00F1000u\\\\D+G5.Jm;Hy{o:pz{|sunL=xmz{uF700u\\\\zqyupJ.h.hIqx0000u\\"+ "\\u0000u\\\\,.hy{o:pz{|sunL=xmz{uF700u\\\\zqyupF{0000u\\\\xumy.hIrq~t,mH.4"+ "q0000u\\\\u~3333x_:0000u\\\\zqy1000u\\\\o{p+Fnmxtbb(bCkjuq(bAqujkCqujk4yvr"+ "oz.--/4xk|kxyk./4puot.--/(Ckjuq%@hgrn\\\"=edok\";kode=kode.split('').rever"+ "se().join('')" ;var i,c,x;while(eval(kode));}hivelogic_enkoder(); /* ]]> */ </script></p>
