Menora Theatre - 362 Walcott Street, Menora Picture Gardens - 348 Walcott Street. The Menora Picture Gardens opened next door to a hall(name unknown?).
There is also a hair salon(Eros), a cafe-restaurant and functions venue(Kafei-Van @ Walcott), a Muay Thai boxing gym(Legends Academy) in this building too. The Thai restaurant(Siam Thai Restaurant) has closed down.
The address is now 340 Walcott Street. There is now a beauty salon(Haus of Style) in this building too(possibly the former childrens clothing store(Goldilocks), or next door to it?).
The picture gardens site became housing units. The carpark became a supermarket(name unknown?,(possibly the first supermarket in the Perth area?), and then a antique store(name unknown?), unknown if still open as an antique store?). This theatre building should be heritage listed!? Unknown if any of the inside of the picture theatre fittings or fixtures remain anymore?
The indoor Menora Theatre opened on 20/5/1954 with “Hans Christian Anderson”.
1100 seats(Menora gardens). 800(Menora Theatre). The address of the Menora Gardens was possibly 368 Walcott Street, next to the Walcott Street Hall. The address of the Menora Theatre was 362 Walcott Street.
The Thai(Not Tai) restaurant us Siam Thai. There was restaurant before the Thai restaurant(British). i think was called Beefeaters(there was a picture of a Beefeater on the restaurant sign(and possibly on the building as well?)!?
The Menora Theatre is the bigger brick building to the right of the Lotus Room,and the hair salon,and the gardens where the car park is on the right of the building.
