The name, Montreal, is an anagram of the name of local draper J J Learmont who had the theatre built in 1929 after spending many hours of research in various Sydney theatres. It is an almost intact example of a 1920’s picture theatre in the style of the architects Kaberry and Chard. It is ‘modernistic’ in style with Art Deco elements, 862 square metres in area and built in brick by Joseph Nyson to complement the existing draper’s store owned by J J Learmont. Today we enjoy a talk, morning tea and a listen to some music reels. Afterwards we head across to the nearby historic township of Adelong for lunch at Beaufort House which retains its unique 1900’s style establishment offering relaxing hospitality and reminders of yesteryear throughout the building.
