(Front St East at Scott St)
The St. Lawrence Centre for the Performing Arts
Initiated in 1967 as Toronto's Centennial Project, the St. Lawrence Centre for the Arts opened its door in 1970. The Theatre, as it was originally called, was renovated in the early eighties with the generous support of Mrs. Bluma Appel, a major patron of the arts. The theatre was renamed in her honour. After the death of Canadian actress Jane Mallett in 1984, a group of friends organized a fundraising campaign to renovate the Jane Mallett Theatre, originally called the Town Hall.Operated by Canstage and the City of Toronto
