Ed Mirvish Theatre

(Formerly the Canon Theatre)

Canon Theatre 244 Victoria Street
Downtown Toronto

Designed by the great theatre architect Thomas Lamb, the recently renamed Ed Mirvish Theatre (formerly the Canon and Pantages Theatre) began its life in 1920 as a combination vaudeville and motion picture theatre. With 3373 seats, it was the largest cinema in Canada. In 2001, the theatre was renamed the Canon Theatre following a pledge of support from Canon Canada, Inc. that guaranteed the continued life and health of an important, historic and beautiful showplace. In 2008, the theatre was purchased by Mirvish Productions, owner of the Princess of Wales and Royal Alexandra and Panosonic Theatres.

On December 6, 2011, the theatre was christened the Ed Mirvish Theatre in honor of the late theatre impresario and businessman “Honest” Ed Mirvish.

Located in the heart of the Downtown Yonge neighbourhood, the Canon is steps from Yonge Dundas Square and Toronto's Eaton Centre shopping mall.
