Centre Gardens and Hall

Tracey Ross Claybrook writes on Facebook’s Memories of Willagee - Its hard to believe that this hall is still standing on the corner of Milroy & Harfoot Streets. When I was a kid in the Sixties it was a picture theatre.

Where the Crucifix is you can see on the side of the building there was a small building with a set of stairs, that was the projector room for the theatre. On the corner of the fence line were billboards showing the movie that would be on. For memory it was only open on a Saturday afternoon during the summer? That’s when I used to go anyway.

I can still recall it had black curtains on the windows to keep it dark. Living in Kirby Street I would check out the billboards on my way to Willagee Primary just a hundred metres away from the theatre. Do you guys remember when this building was a picture theatre? (Reg Claybrook)
