Excitement Contained





The front of the theater now reveals the finished doors and windows. Interesting reflection of the expressway and Ft. Wright water tower give one a sort of "GPS" for the site.

Milling about inside the theater one sees slow but sure progress. Sooo much electrical work goes into the construction of a theater, blogger has discovered. Conclusion: the lighting is as much a production as the action on stage. What good would the latter be without the former? Other aspects of theater construction are moving forward too: more and more railing appears. The side wall where the large opening was is all but finished in the photo. And truly exciting: the yet boxed "clouds" (sound panels) sit on the stage, just delivered this morning. As one workman put it, "It's clouding up." Literal yet figurative. One faculty member's thought: "Now the lightning." Let's make that "lighting," and we're just about ready!
