The article is from the Malvern Standard, a local community newspaper. It is the source of information to the area so it is vital to the life of the community. As for the short clipping, it does not provide significant facts about the theaterâs history itself rather it provides another example of the interaction between the Regent Gardiner and the community. It helps to paint a clearer picture of the Regent Gardiner at the time. The example of a weekly competition to win free tickets displays is an example of the everyday interactions. The fact that it has been successful due to the previous response and winners also gives a clue into the demand and importance of the theater in the community. Also, the past winners are all local from Malvern, or nearby which also gives a slight clue into the demographics of the theater patrons. |
| Synopsis |
This very short piece is about a contest the Regent Gardiner held regularly. It was a letter riddle and the first four individuals that sent their submissions into the theater won two free tickets to an upcoming film. |
