General Manager’s Message

Goodbyes are never easy, so I’m going to keep mine brief. As you’re reading this, my time at Neptune Theatre has come to an end. It’s been an incredible privilege to meet, and become a part of, the community that loves and supports this theatre.

What I will remember most about my time at Neptune is the people. I’ve met patrons who had their first date at Neptune, 50 years ago, and have been coming together ever since. Patrons who come to the holiday show every year because it was what they did as a family when they were children, and now they bring their children and grandchildren to experience the magic of Neptune. People from all over Nova Scotia who are committed to supporting this beautiful building and the incredible people who work within its walls, because they know that Neptune is a cornerstone of our creative community.

To the staff and crew who work so hard, and have been absolute miracle workers over the last few years, thank you. Your passion, ingenuity, determination, and endless creative solutions to creative problems made working at Neptune a truly fulfilling experience. I am so proud of all we accomplished together.

The Board of Directors is engaged in a search for a new Executive Director. I look forward to seeing what this next chapter will bring.

Please enjoy this performance of Elf, and may your holiday season be filled with good cheer, love, and warmth.

Lisa Bugden, General Manager
