The Regent Theatre opened its doors on Monday 4th November 1929 as a cine-variety hall and has since played host to some of the world’s biggest artists, West End shows and comedians. In the 1970s and 80s it changed its name to the Gaumont and was taken over by Ipswich Borough Council in 1991 after public fears for its future. The “new” Regent opened on 21st September 1991. In 2009 the Royal Philharmonic and Lesley Garrett celebrated the theatre’s 80th birthday with a gala concert.
