Summary[edit]
| Description |
English: Originally built as a Temperance Hall in 1890 by the Tasmanian Temperance Alliance, which included members of the Society of Friends. Notably, the Temperance Hall was used for meetings surrounding Women's suffrage in Australia and visited by Jessie Ackermann, who spoke at the hall in 1892. Known as the Bijou Theatre throughout the 1920’s the venue showcased pantomimes, boxing, travelling theatre productions and live music productions. It became Hobart’s first talkie theatre when it reopened as the Avalon Theatre on 11 March 1932. In 1966, the Avalon became home to Hobart's only 70mm film projector. The venue closed in 1976 and operated as an electronics store until 2009. It was purchased by the Hillsong Church in 2020. |
