Illumination

The only source of light was from above the stage; it was a struggle to light the place up enough to see most of the details.

The effect is really cool with the lighting, as if a ghostly performance is about to begin.

That's truly ethereal lighting on the stage. I agree with C-Note - it looks as if another performance is about to begin!

Brings back some great memories, I was Asst. Stage Manager for the shows in HS.

The light on the stage is incredible.

FINALLY! I've been trying to post the new links i found on the forum...but FYI Motts it's saying there is a database error...but nevermind.

I found historic pictures of Kings Park and among them are pictures of York Hall! In it's heyday!

www.kingsparkmuseum.com

They recently expanded their photo collection and there's old b&w as well as some color...even building blue prints to 93!

Yeah, i know...i'm obsessed!
