Revive The Regent

Revive The Regent Revive The Regent believes that Mudgee N.S.W deserve to keep it's theatre. It is amazing building with such a significant history.

Revive The Regent has been set up to create a positive vision for the currently closed and pending development for an 85 room hotel which would demolish our auditorium. We believe that Mudgee deserves to keep this iconic theatre and, that with the community support, we can find a way to Revive The Regent!

🎭 91 YEARS OF THE MUDGEE REGENT THEATRE

Today we celebrate a special milestone in Mudgee’s history, 91 years since the Regent Theatre officially opened its doors!

On 21 August 1935, the Regent welcomed its first audiences, beginning a remarkable chapter as a place where generations of locals have gathered to enjoy films, performances, special events and shared experiences.

Nine decades later, the Regent remains an iconic part of Mudgee’s cultural landscape, a beautiful reminder of the town’s history and its enduring love of the arts and entertainment. ❤️

From opening night to today, here’s to 91 years of stories, screens, laughter, music and memories. Here's some memories in news clippings over the years.

The theatre has always had support from locals and volunteers as you can see from the stories here.

🎉 Happy 91st anniversary, Mudgee Regent Theatre!

Today marks 9 years of Revive The Regent! Thank you all for helping keep this community strong. We still receive emails, calls and messages with interest in Mudgee's theatre.

We are proud to have worked with many talented people over the years to lobby for the theatre's protection. Some of our biggest milestones include:

📄 Working to achieve State Heritage Listing for the Theatre which was completed in partnership with National Trust, LSJ Architects

🏆 Being awarded a National Trust Heritage Award for Advocacy in 2019

🎬 Screening 'Mudgee and it's Regent Theatre' by Professor Ross Thorne to the public for the first time

🖐️ Working to stop the Hotel DA in 2017which would have seen the part demolition of the Theatre which was not all inline with the town's reputation for heritage, conversation and community values. This campaign continued all the way to Land & Environment Court in 2019.

Hiring Lucas Stapleton Johnson & Partners, architects and heritage advisors, was the best thing we could have done to stop the high rise hotel and thank you to everyone who helped donate to these costs.

Thank you to who supported our work and we shall continue to watch over the progress of its restoration. We're just glad there's still a theatre instead of a multi-story hotel. We look forward to seeing it revived inline with the heritage, conversation and community values that helped to protect it. ✨
