Why is it significant? - The Horsham Theatre is of historical significance as one of the earliest surviving and largest purpose-built cinemas in rural Victoria. It is rare for its combined cinema and live performance functions and for retaining a pair of 1950s projectors.
The Horsham Theatre is of architectural significance as an outstanding example of the work of Bohringer, Taylor and Johnson, one of the most important and prolific cinema architectural firms in Australia. It is the best surviving example of their work in rural Victoria. This firm designed the Forum and Rapallo cinemas (former State Theatre), Melbourne in 1928 (VHR H0438) in conjunction with the American cinema architect John Eberson, and Ron Taylor designed the Astor, St Kilda in 1936 (VHR H1751).
