The Gladstone Theatre began life in 1982 under the auspices of the Great Canadian Theatre Company (GCTC). The building is a converted service garage.
GCTC staged productions here until 2007, when they moved to newer facilities. At that time the theatre was purchased by two local entrepreneurs who embarked on a renovation plan. In 2011, additional investors joined forces with them, to ensure that live theatre would be stage here for years to come.
The theatre was again sold in 2016, to owners who are committed to the live theatre experience of The Gladstone.
There are currently about a dozen yearly productions, plus special kids Summer Drama school, and seasonal events.
There are seating packages available. The theatre is now accessible to all.
