Last summer,end of August/beginning Sept./ me & 2 friends were able to get in.It was like we were in some Indiana Jones movie as it was like an ancient tomb.Unfortunately a lot of the interior was gutted out due to it being converted to a High School.I got video of the remains of the proscenium though the sides were destroyed.My first video was not so good but the next week I got better video though there was more destruction.But I did get some digital camera stills & video of the magnificent ceiling.How sad that this beautiful interior was being destroyed.This was one of the most beautiful theaters ever made. Ironically, in the weeks before,I was looking forward to the 90th anniversary of its grand opening in 1911-September,11th,2001 !
