 On September 9, 1901, *Way Down East* became the very first production staged at the New Grand Opera House at 471 Richmond Street. In the 125 years that have followed, this building has been a home for community and culture in the heart of Downtown London... and we're going to celebrate!



Join us in recognizing 125 years of live performance in Downtown London by **standing on the Spriet Stage**, enjoying our new **Grand 125 historical exhibit** in the lobbies, and more! Featuring live performances by **KJ and Motones** and **Mark Swan’s GOOD HANG**.   
   
**Admission: $10**   
   
**BBQ food is available for purchase. All proceeds from BBQ/food sales support Youth Opportunities Unlimited (Y.O.U). Cash bar onsite.**
