The keith albee in huntington, wv is in serious trouble. Articles about closing it and the building not being able to survive are horrible. The town is building a theatre complex two blocks away, so city funds are going towards that instead of this truly beautiful place.

I grew up in huntington and cannot stand the thought of something happening to this theatre. What can citizens such as myself do to help? The place is so historical and the most beautiful theatre I have been in. The Fox theatre in Atlanta (my current home) is half the size and prospers so much.

Please help! The article seems like it is okay, but it is not.

Thanks,

It would be terrible if this theater were destroyed. It is a beautiful theater that has just been renovated. If only it were'nt competing witha near-by multiplex.

Short note: The photo of the Keith Albee was taken by Greg Pauley of GHTC. He also took the close up pics of the restoration of the Keith following the fire that are available on the Keith Albee’s official site.
