The Star Theatre is a historic Streamline Modern/Art Deco former theatre in the inner Launceston suburb of Invermay, Tasmania. When it opened in 1937, the theatre provided seating for 250 persons. It has currently been converted for use by the St. Vincent de Paul Society as a charity store after the theatre closed in 1969.[1]
The property was sold in March 2015 and the new owners plan to open an independent cinema, a bar and a café there in 2017.[2]
