About

The King's Theatre was a theatre in Melbourne, Australia, located at 133 Russell Street between Bourke Street and Little Collins Street.

Opening in 1908, the theatre was designed by William Pitt for the theatrical entrepreneur William Anderson.

It was a major live theatre during the first half of the twentieth century, and became a cinema (under the name the Barclay) from the late 1950s until closing in 1976.
