EXCERPT:
Regular readers of Straight.com are probably aware that the 60-year-old Massey Theatre in New Westminster could be demolished to make room for a new high school.

That hasn't stopped the Massey Theatre Society from holding a 60th-anniversary celebration on October 24th for the building. "This is an opportunity for the public to celebrate a glorious past and show support for the next chapter in the story of this unique cultural institution," says the society in a news release.

Only 200 tickets will be sold for the event, which will include six dances created and performed by dancers and choreographers with Dance With Me Studios. 

Each dance will represent one of the six decades that the Massey Theatre has been open. Tickets cost $60 and are available at the Massey Ticket Centre at 604-521-5050.
