The Majestic Theatre in Pomona, South-East Queensland

During 32 years of ownership by Ron West and his late wife Mandy, the Majestic Theatre in the Noosa Hinterland town of Pomona gained world-wide recognition as an authentic Silent Picture house with Ron providing accompaniments on the pipe organ.

Since October 2006, the theatre has been in community hands and has been given a major refurbishment.

New owners Pomona Progress.Art.Tourism Inc operate the building as an all-purpose entertainment venue, suitable also for corporate events, wedding celebrations and community functions.The former “candy bar” has been refitted as a commercial kitchen to support the cafe and restaurant, with chef Patrick Landelle providing a wide range of menu choices.

While facilities have been  brought up to the standards required by 21^st century patrons, the style of yesteryear has been retained and Ron West continues to make available his skills as organist.

The Golden Age of Silent Cinema lives on at the Majestic

Refurbishment of the Majestic Theatre was made possible by funding from the Australian Federal Government under its Regional Partnerships Program, through the Department of Transport and Regional Services; Noosa Council, and many generous community groups and individuals. 

The project was carried out by SkillCentred Queensland through a Community Jobs Program, with wages paid by the Department of Employment and Industrial Relations.
