FAMILY THEATRE CHANGES HANDS
The Drexel People Have Taken Over the Opera House
[Welland Tribune, 28 March 1912]
Theatrical matters are having quite a shaking up in the theatre this week but we are still to retain the service of the three play houses.
John Green of Galt, who has been managing the Family Theatre in the opera house, has not received the support he expected on coming to Welland, and has decided to retire from the business here. He has decided to give up the theatre at the end of next week, and the Drexel people, who have managed the Drexel theatre so successfully and given the public such unbounded satisfaction for the past two years, have leased the opera house theatre and will open it immediately on Mr. Green’s retirement.
It will not be called the Family Theatre any more, but will have a new name, and will have a strictly up-to-date, refined and attractive programme, consisting of the best motion pictures produced and the best possible vaudeville acts that can be obtained.
One seldom steps into the Drexel without seeing something good, and the public have so much confidence in the management of Messrs. Clarke that we predict a successful season for them in their double venture.
