The excitement was palpable in the line for the first show in 2014 that snaked down Union Street in Milton June 7 awaiting the red carpet entrance, complete with a cabaret performance.
Performers with Middletown-based Premier Centre for the Arts manned the doors, prepared for "You're a Good Man Charlie Brown" performance and warmed the crowd with cabaret performances.
Proud Miltonians, guests and dignitaries welcomed the opening of the newly-renovated historical theatre.
