I am a Picture Theatre/Cinema buff and just love looking at our grand theatres that were built as multifunctional centres. The State Theatre in Sydney is no exception. Apart from the now long gone Regent Theatre, it just shows that the State Theatre has stood the test of time. If only the once grand and beautiful Regent Theatre was still operating. One can appreciate the art decco of these theatres. The Regent was grandeur spectacular. The old Theatre district in Sydney's CBD is slowly being Swallowed up by the new Event Cinema chain. Let's do all we can to keep this beautiful grand lady looking young and fresh and let it "NEVER" be sold as an offshore investment. They are worth more than mere money can buy.
Sydney's State Theatre could have been transformed into a proper lyric theatre with orchestra pit, backstage, extended stage and loading dock, but a neighbouring building put up recently has made this impossible? Typical Sydney shortsightedness.
My Great Grandfather was responsible for the creation of The State Theatre. It really is truly spectacular.

Pictures scratch what it would be like inside it
