King's Cross Theatre (night time), Darlinghurst Road, Sydney, c. 1939

from State Library of New South Wales

  • Peter Kelaher said:
    In the 60s, the Kings Cross Theatre became the Surf City music venue, often with Billy Thorpe and The Aztecs as the headline act.
  • Merryjack said:
    Peter Kelaher I remember the old Surf City well, could get a bit rough at times with the Mods and Rockers!
  • Peter Kelaher said:
    Merryjack I’ve heard the same. Would have loved to have made it there but, alas, too young!

'Paris in the South' - RAHS/Osborne Collection c. 1930s

from Royal Australian Historical Society

  • pellethepoet said:
    Not south Paris, France! 'Paris in the South' - ie. Kings Cross, Sydney (incidentally, the other 'Paris in the South' is Collins Street, Melbourne). The Willow Cafe, 38B Darlinghurst Road, can be seen at left. Compare with: Macleay Street [sic] (1933) by Harold Cazneaux - artsearch.nga.gov.au/Detail.cfm?IRN=112365 For more info on The Willow Cafe and surrounding business in the 1930s, see the book: Philip Geeves presents Cazneaux's Sydney 1904-1934 by Gael Newton, David Ell Press*, Sydney, 1980, p. 138. Homage to Harold Cazneaux, 2006 [*David Ell, 1940-2014, RIP - www.smh.com.au/comment/obituaries/david-ell-cando-publish...]
