Reminds me of a local theater here. It is over 100 years old, has survived two serious earthquakes and is still in the center of town. It has changed the top of the building from a hotel to box seats and dressing rooms. Through all of this work they have managed to keep the metal seat frames (similar to these) yet make them completely comfortable and padded.

This book lover would adore this woodwork in her own home. Beautiful photo Motts.

The lost art of theater balconies. I used to love watching films from up high.

Something about those curtains keep drawing my eyes back to them. So glad you were able to get the photo before the arson fire.

Something about this photograph. It really draws me to it. Brilliant.

Love the colors you captured here, Motts.

What a surprise to see the bland brick walls after viewing the exterior.
