Cavendish - CAVENDISH - To commemorate the 100th anniversary of the publication of "Anne of Green Gables", a new theatre will be opening this summer in Cavendish.
The Montgomery Theatre will provide a venue to present plays from the life and times of the book's author, Lucy M. Montgomery.
The idea of the theatre was hatched in the summer of 2007 when a group of tourism operators from the Cavendish area met to plan a community commemoration project to mark the centennial.
The group also met with internationally acclaimed artistic director Duncan McIntosh, to come up with plans for the theatre.
This new cultural initiative will be launched on Thursday at 10 a.m. at Avonlea Church in Avonlea Village, Cavendish.
During the launch event, organizers will be discussing the selected works to be presented during this inaugural season and answering questions on this undertaking.
