I wonder what the last performance was, and if the actors knew it would be the last.

Wow...now THIS Is impressive! i don't even have a smart-alec remark to make about it. It reminds me a LOT of the lecture hall when I went to Penn State College. :) It was my Biology class I think.. :D

It was an educational lecture hall, I think, because of the blackboard on the back wall of the "stage". Maybe?

This room doesnt look bad, more like a college lecture hall. I like the wood in the front and the dark pink overhead.

POLICE POLICE!! DANO IS SNEAKING FOOD INTO THE THEATER!!

Heehee...guess what my family does when we go to the movies? Yup...snacks and sometimes drinks hidden in my baby bag. Thank GOODNESS I have an infant! They never check and even w/o a bag, there are ways of sneaking stuff in. :D

This theater looks huge and a lot like the Cinemark Theater we have here locally. :)

It looks so modern in there. That blackboard looks like it could be a mural. I see green and blue on it

It is all natural light coming from hallway windows on either side of the stage.

Although I am Presbyterian, my dad grew up in the Baptist church. I went with him to his church a few times and they had a landscape portrait of a river in the front; apparently lots of Baptist churches have these. The rectangular object at the front looks like one of these. This room might've been used for religious services on Saturdays & Sundays. Also, I noticed a projector screen lying on the floor on the stage. It might've been put down to show movies.

I wonder if this was a community meeting space for the town/states business and/or for the employees - this one doesn't strike me as a place for the patients.
