Citadel Theatre

Located across the street from the Winspear Centre( yesterday's Picture), This is the Citadel Theatre which was founded on October 12, 1965. The first performance was on November 10, 1965 with Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf.
The name of the theatre comes from the original location of the theatre. It was located in the old Salvation Army Citadel. This building opened in 1976 and is such an instrumental part of the Arts District in Edmonton
