Ed Mirvish Theatre
The Ed Mirvish Theatre is a historic film and play theatre in Downtown Toronto, Ontario, Canada. It was initially known as the Pantages Theatre, then became the Imperial Theatre first as a huge cinema and then a six screen multiplex. Garth Drabinsky purchased the theatre and reopened it as the Pantages. In 1989 its first musical Phantom of the Opera opened with Colm Wilkinson as the Phantom.
After Drabinsky's company was liquidated by the courts the Mirvish family purchased the theatre and reopened it as the Canon Theatre. After family scion Ed passed away the theatre was renamed in his honour.
