Fredericton has had a very active theatre community for decades, and one of the centres for much of that has been The Fredericton Playhouse<\/strong><\/a>. A wide variety of events are held there, too, beyond theatre and including musical acts, ballet, comedy, and more.<\/p>\n

But while the outside of the building and the main theatre always impress, the reality is: it’s in trouble. The building is aging badly under the curtains, and will need to be replaced.<\/p>\n

My guest today is Tim Yerxa<\/strong>, the Executive Director of The Fredericton Playhouse. We talk about the great work that has been done at the Playhouse over its 50-year life, the problems they have been dealing with for a while, and the ambitious future of new theatre and community centre buildings that are planned for the future.<\/p>\n
