Plaza Theatre, Art Deco movie theater on Hay Street, Perth, Australia.
The Plaza Theatre features a narrow facade with vertical lines and geometric patterns, representing the Streamline Moderne architectural style of the 1930s.
Inaugurated in September 1937, the Plaza Theatre initially accommodated 1,314 seats and served as the first purpose-designed Art Deco cinema in Perth.
The Plaza Theatre functioned as Hoyts' primary cinema in Western Australia, screening major films including The Sound of Music after its 1965 renovation.
The theatre building remains accessible through a rear entrance, with its auditorium situated above 40 retail shops in the Plaza Arcade.
The National Trust classified this cinema in 1990, preserving its status as an early example of Perth's entertainment venues from the interwar period.
