I love theaters. 

That’s really all you have to know. I’m also obsessed with theater lighting (Ahem, lighting in general). I haven’t been able to get too involved for the last four years, but I really hope that my theater days aren’t over. 

Because of this love, I’m posting these pictures. Do I love the theater? Not really. Do I like it? Yes. 
Truth be told, I’m more of a black box kinda girl. But, to each his own.

Oh, I guess they redid the entry to this theater. I think that renovation came out nicely.

There is also a lot that needs to go into designing theaters. So much in fact that it really is a huge undertaking. Do you see the difference in grade in that section?! Yeah. Do you see how much height is necessary above the stage for the fly system? And it could probably be higher! It… can always be higher! The stage can always be deeper, the wings always wider. I would love to design a theater. Or at least be a part of it at some point. I’m not sure if I would want to only design theaters, but I’d at least like to try it. See how it goes. I’ve done positively everything else in them (Except sound. Never cared about sound.), I might as well make them too! 

Interesting acoustical elements. Acoustics are so interesting! There is so much science that goes behind them. It’s such an involved process. My hat is off to any sound engineer who can figure it all out.
