Theatre Museum Canada has not only lost its Honorary Patron, the theatrical world has lost one of its greatest classical actors.

Christopher Plummer cherished his Canadian roots and his generosity of spirit was exemplified by his long time support of TMC.

With profound gratitude Theatre Museum Canada thanks actor Ron Braden for the charitable gift of $548,000 made in his Will. The largest donation ever made to Theatre Museum Canada, it creates The Gertrude Isobelle Braden Fund, named after his mother, and will help the organization preserve Canadian theatre heritage for future generations.

Thanks for joining us and celebrated costume and set designer Susan Benson for the launch of Patricia Flood’s new book:
