Bernie Legge Theatre, and the Lady In White



Bernie Legge Theatre

Wow. That is all that needs be said about this historic theatre in New Westminster, BC.
Having been around for over 50 years, it has had a wide variety of fantastic shows, and even more incredible actors and actresses. The activity that is known to have taken place in the theatre seems to be well known. Instances that range from visual sightings of the Lady In White in the main theatre, to sounds of footsteps on the stage. These are heard by people alone in the building, leaving the employees feeling the need to leave and get out of the theatre as fast as possible.
If you ever find yourself looking for an excellent show, then I highly recommend The Legge Theatre.
And who knows you may even get a glimpse of the Lady In White, if you are lucky.

Nice little theatre. No ghosts, though.

I've spend the last year working at this theatre. There are 3 known entities. The Woman in White (aka Mrs. White) is seen as floating orbs between the seats. There is a little boy who kicks the back of seats. There is the old fisherman who is seen in reflections of glass and mirrors in the lobby and greenroom. Finally, there is the dungeon. This is a place where even the most skeptical of people can't help but feel a sense of great fear. Actresses back in the 80's and 90's have told stories where they felt something grabbing them from behind, like long invisible arms trying to wrap around them. No one ever goes to the theatre alone after dark. Strange things happen that defy logic and reason all too often. Lights flickering and strange noises are so common, we don't even pay any attention to those things anymore.
