What began in the local Town Hall as travelling entertainment in the early 1900s, grew to a sophisticated and glamorous enterprise, thanks to the vision of Bob Hamilton. For almost forty years Star burned their arc lamps and projected the films and film stars we grew to love onto the big screen.At the Movies: The History of the Star Theatres of Tasmania travels in time through the twentieth century from silent film, to the Talkies and shows the development of the industry in the north and west of Tasmania. It tells of what went on inside the dark theatre - the hijinks in the back rows, falling in love, the terror of a horror flick. These old theatres have embedded themselves deeply into our hearts and memories but sadly many of them are gone. Some still stand, repurposed, and two, the Paragon in Queenstown, built 1933, and the Star in Invermay, built 1937, are screening once more, a wonderful tribute to the men who built them over eighty years ago.
