This would be great for anyone wanting to research the culture of the âpicturesâ without focusing specifically on any one venue, or applying their ideas and creating comparisons to venues unmentioned. This book is best utilized by someone researching a larger or better-known theatre such as the Regent in Melbourne. For the purpose of the Regent Gardiner, it gives background on the concept of the Regent theaters and their purpose. It is also important for the discussion of the suburban circuit of theater venues and has ideas about their successes and failures.
