Lord Leebrick Theatre receives $200,000 grant

Congratulations to Lord Leebrick Theater  who will receive $200,000 from the Meyer Memorial Trust whose trustees voted unanimously in support of the local theater’s project to build a new facility on West Broadway. The new theatre is slated to be ready for performances in early 2013. Let’s raise our glass to even more shows that Eugene audiences love, like Avenue Q, which landed Leebrick in a tie for first place in this year’s Best of Eugene Best Theater Performance. This nudges the city a little closer to BOE voter’s wish for the Best Thing That Could Happen to Eugene: Downtown revitalization.
