| Note(s) | The fourth and final version of the Theatre Royal was completed in 1935 with a capacity of 3,700. According to a feature in the Irish Decorators' and Builders' Review, excavations for a bar to serve the stalls necessitated working 24 feet below river level for three months. The theatre closed for the last time in 1962 and was subsequently demolished. |
