 Complete the following phrase:  The Annapolis Basin in Nova Scotia served as the cradle for both French and English language theatre in Canada. Le Théâtre de Neptune, a pageant written by Marc Lescarbot for performance at the Port-Royal Habitation in 1606, was the first European theatre production in North America. The tradition of English theatre in Canada, also started at Annapolis Royal. The tradition at Fort Anne, Nova Scotia, was to produce a play in honour of the Prince of Waless birthday. Prior to Paul Mascarenes productions, the Boston Gazette 411 June 1733 reported that George Farquhars The Recruiting Officer was produced on Saturday, 20 January 1733 by the officers of the garrison to mark the Princes birthday. Paul Mascarene translated Molières La Misanthrope and then staged at least two productions of the work during the winter of 1743-1744. The second performance on 20 January 1744 had also coincided with celebrations in the colony to mark the birthday of Frederick, Prince of Wales. The text of the first three acts is contained in the Mascarene papers, British Library. And four years after the Mascarene production, on 20 January 1748, Major Phillips and Captain Floyer also produced a play in honour of the Princes birthday. Unfortunately, the Boston News Letter 3 March 1748 fails to indicate the title of the play. It does reveal, however, that the same play was staged a second time on 2 February 1748, at the request of Captain Winslow, after the colony received the news of Admiral Edward Hawkes success
