Bailey Theatre – The Sequel… Grand Opening this weekend! The Bailey Theatre Society was formed in 1998 with the intent to restore the once remarkable old movie house and entertainment facility to its former glory. Originally, plans for the aged structure included necessary repairs, paint and other cosmetic improvements. However, a much grander vision by a handful of dedicated local citizens led to a $8 million reconstruction and impressive enhancement of the building. Former Camrosian Frank MacInnis, today a Fortune 500 businessman and philanthropist of note, stepped forward with a multi-million-dollar donation to the cause. The City of Camrose, provincial and federal governments also made timely mega-milliondollar-sized donations. The result is a first-class venue which will be used for local theatre, business presentations, ceremonies and a wide variety of entertainment. It’s been just over 100 years since initial construction by entrepreneur Camille David. Well over a decade ago, Landmark Cinemas donated the building and a tired, well-used projector to the Bailey Theatre Society. And the Bailey Theatre, which has provided millions of memories for people far and wide, can now live on! This week, the Grand Opening of the new, improved Bailey Theatre will take place. A limited number of tickets for the May 21st opening are still available. Call 780-672-5510 for details.
