Keith Busha shares this note…
In the lobby of the Community Theatre there is now a display of handmade posters and photos. Some of these date back before the present theater existed. The acting community was called the Straights of Juan de Fuca and the building was called the Royal Theater, now it has been renamed the Palace Theater…
Many of these plays happened before I moved to the island 20 years ago but it’s wonderful to see the smiles on the faces of those people who do remember their involvement or seeing their neighbors on the stage. Many thousands of people have contributed to the creation of the plays and concerts over the years. It’s important to keep the sense of history alive and to honor these people.
