  • In 1928 a theatre organ was built by Wurlitzer for the Regent Theatre in Adelaide. The instrument was installed in the theatre in September en the first concert was given on September 22, 1928. In 1968, the organ was reloacted to the War Memorial Hall of Saint Peter's College in Hackney by the company J.E. Dodd Gunstar Organ Works. This hall dates from the same period of the organ, and was opened on September 22, 1929.
  • After a fire in the hall, the organ was restored in 1985. In 1988, George Stephens enlarged the organ with a new Mixture. The organ has three manuals and pedal and sixteen ranks.
