Port Colborne and Lighthouse Festival Theatre are joining forces for a five-year partnership.

Starting in April, the two will team up to operate the Roselawn Centre Theatre.
Lighthouse Festival Theatre currently runs out of the Roselawn Centre in the summer, but will be expanding to off year-round performances.
The city says the plan is to make the Roselawn Centre a widely accessible cultural hub and a welcoming public space.
Lighthouse Festival Theatre Artistic Director Derek Ritschel says they are thrilled at the opportunity to build on the success of their summer productions and increase the programming and use of the building year-round.
