Legend

this man was a noted holodrama actor who retired after a number of successful premiers and bought the Galaxies Opera House on Coruscant, several years before the onset of the Clone Wars. He worked almost as hard at maintaining his public image as he did managing the theater, and was often seen in the company of Coruscant's most influential Senators and businessbeings. However, despite the success of the Galaxies Opera Houe, Treblanc lost a small fortune while gambling on podraces. Just when he thought he would have to sell the theater, he learned that Chancellor Palpatine was willing to fund the facility. In exchange, the Chancellor only asked for a private viewing box that was protected by the latest in security systems. Treblanc thought the elaborate system of security a small price to pay to retain the theater, especially when Palpatine offered to hire his own team to arrange for the box to be protected. Treblanc was able to maintain ownership of the Galaxies Opera House, but was unaware of the dealings that often happened in Palpatine's box.
