The one question on everyone's mind — when will The Garry Theatre be opening? — is now one big step closer to being answered.

After years of behind-the scenes planning, research, investment, and community engagement, the Garry Theatre's inaugural Board of Directors has officially been named — and they've hit the ground running.

One of the Board's first major tasks is hiring an Executive Director for the theatre, who will oversee day-to-day operations and help guide it from reopening night to long-term sustainability. That job posting is now open with a closing date of May 9.

The creation of a board has long been identified as a critical step in reopening the Garry Theatre, ensuring the facility is guided by strong governance and community leadership, and the first board brings together a group of 11 community-minded individuals offering a diverse mix of skills, experiences, and perspectives.
