Heath Ledger was honoured by his hometown of Perth, Australia today who have named their newest $87 million theatre after him.

In a report in the Huffington Post, it said;

“The Australian hometown of the late actor Heath Ledger named a theatre in his honour Tuesday for his commitment to acting.

The $87 million, 575-seat Heath Ledger Theatre in Perth is a fitting tribute because Ledger was always supportive of other young actors, Western Australian state Premier Alan Carpenter said at a naming ceremony.

‘Heath Ledger was totally dedicated to the craft of being an actor and that’s what made him successful,’ Carpenter said.  ‘I think what we’re doing is continuing that support for young people who want to make a career in the arts and acting, stage and in film, whatever it happens to be.’

Kim Ledger, the actor’s father, called the tribute a pleasant surprise.  ‘He was such a giver to the arts right across the board.  I really feel that there’s not a lot of things he’d put his name to, but he’d put his name to that,’ said Kim Ledger, who attended Tuesday’s ceremony.”
