Pretty graphic picture here of utter decay!!
Looks like there's no lack of moss, or mold, or whatever that is!
These just keep getting better! Spectacular photography. I would step lightly in this room for fear a chunk-o-ceiling would come down on my coconut.
This yet again proves my theory that miracle grow don't have nothing on the growing potential of an old theater or auditorium.
Here we are now , entertain us
Beautiful
What is that object lying in the foreground? Looks like a light (SOAP DISPENSER!!!!!!!!) of some sort.

"All the world's a stage,
And all the men and women merely players:
They have their exits and their entrances;
And one man in his time plays many parts,
His acts being seven ages. At first the infant,
Mewling and puking in the nurse's arms.
And then the whining school-boy, with his satchel
And shining morning face, creeping like snail
Unwillingly to school. And then the lover,
Sighing like furnace, with a woeful ballad
Made to his mistress' eyebrow. Then a soldier,
Full of strange oaths and bearded like the pard,
Jealous in honour, sudden and quick in quarrel,
Seeking the bubble reputation
Even in the cannon's mouth. And then the justice,
In fair round belly with good capon lined,
With eyes severe and beard of formal cut,
Full of wise saws and modern instances;
And so he plays his part. The sixth age shifts
Into the lean and slipper'd pantaloon,
With spectacles on nose and pouch on side,
His youthful hose, well saved, a world too wide
For his shrunk shank; and his big manly voice,
Turning again toward childish treble, pipes
And whistles in his sound. Last scene of all,
That ends this strange eventful history,
Is second childishness and mere oblivion,
Sans teeth, sans eyes, sans taste, sans everything."
Shakespeare-"As You Like It"
(Yes, I did copy and paste lol)
Seating decay in its finest hour. Wonder if there was even one seat that could of been used... i doubt it.
thank you mama :)
there's something on the floor....
also this would really make nice wallpaper.
Decay at its most photogenic.
holy cow
You are so welcome bobo. :) That just came to my mind as I was looking at the pics of the theatre and I couldn't remember how the first part went, so I looked it up and I thought it was very apropo as they say. :)

Isn't it a shame that some of this place is so pristine looking and rooms like this are in utter chaos and decay? Sad.
I love this pic
