Royal Alexandra Theatre
Toronto, Canada, is the third-largest theatre centre in the English-speaking world. Few cities in North America can offer anything approaching the variety and quality of its stage productions; none can equal the number and splendor of its theatres. And in Toronto, the finest and best-loved of those theatres are the Royal Alexandra, the Princess of Wales and the Canon.
