The Regal Theatre is a fine Art Deco theatre located in the Perth suburb of Subiaco in Western Australia. It was built in 1937, and officially opened on 27 April 1938. The venue was built by grandparents of playwright Dorothy Hewett.
Named for King George VI who ascended to the throne during its construction, the theatre was originally for films only, but in 1977 it was converted into a live theatre. As of 2024 it is one of the few remaining theatres in Perth.
