    According to the owner:
    There’s a lot of mystery and conjecture about the history of the beautiful heritage building that Factory has occupied since 1983. But with the help of local historian Joanne Ducette and some archive material found in the building, some interesting facts about the history of the building and the backstage areas of the theatre were unearthed.Factory Theatre is actually two buildings, both of which have heritage designation. The original “house” portion (that currently holds our administration offices, lounge and greenrooms) was built in 1869 by Irish immigrant John Mulvey. The house was built in the Queen Anne Gothic style and has remarkable distinct finials under all the gables.John Mulvey was a City Alderman, local merchant and Fenian sympathizer who owned many of the stores on nearby Queen Street West, (the local area – known as Claretown back then – had a large Irish contingent) only to lose his fortune in the Long Depression of the 1870s.
