The crowd at Live and Uncorked This Thursday (April 14th), from 4 to 6 p.m., Market Hall Performing Arts Centre is opening its doors to the public for a tour of the new theatre, including guided backstage access.
This represents the first opportunity for the general public to experience all of the upgrades and renovations the new Hall has to offer, including all new acoustical engineering, retractable stage, sprung dance floor in the main hall and lobby, new seating and balconies, and $9 million dollars in improvements.
"It is this community that has made the wonderful changes to Market Hall possible," says Karen August, Market Hall General Manager. "And we want the community to see what they have helped bring about."
PtboCanada live blogged the "Live and Uncorked" event there recently and got a chance to see inside this world-class facility. Check it out for yourself this Thursday.

Photo: Evan HoltSo we recently posed the question on Twitter, "Peterborough Square. If someone handed you the building, clean slate, what would you do with it?" We received a range of interesting answers. Among them:
-- "Demolish it, build a public square & park around Market Hall with ice rink, outdoor stage, greenspace. Parking underground." —Candace Shaw
-- "Peterborough Square: Casino!" —David Feeley
-- "Dr offices. Professional buiding." —Paul Laing
-- "Ptbo Square partly demolished. Keep the theatre and leave the lower level for offices. Above should be a conference centre!" —Justin Beaudoin
-- "Convention centre, arboretum w/ space for farmer's market, town square." —Bill Juby
-- "PTBO Square should be an international flea market." —Catherine Hanrahan
Several people on Twitter really liked Candace Shaw's idea above, with Alana Callan remarking, "It would really put the focus back on downtown as a communal place, the 'heart' of the city."
So what do you think? Perfect world, what would you do with Peterborough Square? Leave it as is? Tweak? Radical change? Comment below, or elaborate on some of the thoughts above.
