The renovated Granada Theatre in The Dalles will reopen this weekend with a series of events.  Chuck Gomez and Debra Liddell, who own a similar historic theatre in Illinois, took possession of the Granada from the Columbia Gateway Urban Renewal Agency in April.  Gomez says the building is ready to be open to the public with interior and exterior renovations.  Gomez says for long-term success the theatre has to build a local base, with private parties and corporate events as a focus as well as expanding into community theater, and the café will be open on a regular basis.  The Granada will hold a gala opening Friday night, followed by a concert tribute to Johnny Cash and Elvis Presley on Saturday and Afterglow Aerial Arts on Sunday.  For information go to granadatheatrethedalles.com.
