St Olaves, Norfolk, UK, April 2021

I took this picture last Friday on the edge of a company event. It is a well considered but simple photograph of a red tent. The white rectangle is the opposite window and the black area at the bottom of the picture is the floor of the tent.

Fox Oakland Theater, Oakland, CA

The auditorium of the Fox Theatre has a colorful East Indian Buddhist temple gloss applied over a standard squared off Weeks & Day interior. The entry portion of the main facade takes the form of a polychrome mosaic-like shrine, with smaller lantern-topped towers on either side. Trim with a Near Eastern flavor forms the cornice line for the remainder of the building.

I took a moment to review photos taken in 2020, during the Covid year, and edited a few tonight. One picture is of Bourbon Theatre in Lincoln, Nebraska. To confirm, yes, this venue survived.

On April 3, I posted a tighter shot of the Grand Lake Theatre marquee. This photo was shot last night - 3.5 months into the original Shelter in Place order and the streets are still eerily quiet in the evening hours.

 

FYI: The Splash Pad News just published an article about the theater owner: splashpad.org/the-grand-lake-theater-a-sign-of-our-times/

 

And neighborhood resident, David Gans has been documenting the political messaging on the marquee since 2005.

Some things in cites remains unchanged. That is the blazing brilliance of the marquees that funnel you into oldeer large theatres. The newer architecture, IMO, lacks the brilliance and audience appeals that screams . . . "Something big is happening in here."

 

There's something about roaming a downtown area and seeing bright pools of light that mark an entrance to a theatrical venue.

 

Such a one, I saw one night in my roamings in downtown Minneapolis.

There is a neon "L" on the marquee plus a neon sign above the marquee (see pic to the left). I like the small size of this marquee and the reels on the outside.
