Abstract/Description The Turret Theatre operated in Milsons Point from 1928 to 1930. It was cited in the former East St Leonards Town Hall. This was a building of a distinctive pseudo-medieval style, built from 1888–1890 on an irregularly shaped block of land on the corner of Alfred and Glen streets in Milsons Point. It was designed by Walter Liberty Vernon, a Neutral Bay resident and Alderman for East St Leonards and, in 1890, the newly appointed Government Architect. When North Sydney Council moved to new premises, the building was leased on 7 June 1928 for two years at two pounds a week to Don Finlay as representative of the Turret Theatre Ltd.
