Federal Member for Eden-Monaro Kristy McBain visited Yass and the Liberty Theatre last Friday and believes its restoration is ripe to lead a regional revival in Yass as a place to live and work.
The truly remarkable theatre in Yass was built by the two most important cinema and theatre designers of the era.
The Liberty Theatre in Yass was built and opened in December 1939 and the building today contains many original features. One of these is the original green carpet which still lines the aisles in the upstairs dress circle.
In 2024, the Friends of the Liberty have achieved major improvements to ensure the association is ready to restore and manage the iconic 1939 Art Deco theatre.
