Filed Under Kitchen Curtain | Posted on June 4, 2008
From Alice’s Restaurant to Rosecrantz and Guildenstern, the stage is set for the first season at Richmond Hill’s new performing arts centre.
The vision of having a theatre for York Region has been in the works for at least 26 years and this council is proud to be making it a reality, he said.
A quartet of singers kicked off the event, performing Jason Robert Brown’s “The New World.â€
The voice of the theatre, Colin Fox, followed, reciting the “All the world’s a stage†soliloquy from As You Like It. Mr. Fox introduced theatre manager Michael Grit, who picked up the theme of the song.
The rest of the theatre’s first week demonstrates the diversity of acts set to come.
