These are the men who worked on building the Paramount Theatre in Colac in late 1924 early 1925. We believe that there are 2 Bells and one Pimm amongst the builders. In 1931 the building was bought by Regent Theatres and further refurbished. The RSL bought the building in 1981 and have just recently had the facade painted.

Present Displays
The Historical Society’s new window display is “Fur as Fashion”
