The original architect of the Balderson Theatre was Andrew Stuart Allaster(Biographical Dictionary of Architects in Canada.) The house underwent major alterations in 1930, with plans by Ottawa architect Cecil Burgess.

I think this should read MARKS BROTHERS not MARX BROTHERS. The Marks Brothers were a theatrical troupe (actually multiple troupes) from the Perth, Ontario, area. They traveled throughout Canada and northern United States in the late 1800s and early 1900s. The Marx Brothers were those funny guys who made movies and were from New York (not Canada). They also did Vaudeville shows back when they (the shows) were popular.
