redbullt.gif (122 bytes) Name change for Vancouver Zone!
Theatre BC's Board of Directors endorsed a name change for the Vancouver Zone at the meetings at Backstage 2001 in Vancouver. The Zone will be known as the Greater vancouver Zone (GVZ) to better reflect the involvement of communities such as New Westminster, Burnaby, Delta and White Rock. We will gradually switch over any references to the VAZ on our website, so watch for those changes.
