Regent Theatre Upgrade
Client: Marriner Group
Location:
Victoria
Value: $12 Million
The Regent Theatre is one of Melbourne’s premier theatre and live performance venues. The theatre has been variously modified and adapted from its original use as a cinema to provide facilities for live performance, however much of the decorative scheme reconstructed following the 1945 fire has been retained. The works adopt a similar approach to the mid-1990s refurbishment of the building by retaining and celebrating the existing decorative scheme and adopting a sympathetic approach to the introduction of new facilities and fabric. The works are currently being undertaken to support the ongoing use of the building for theatre and live performances.
