I am in a band and we have performed at the Wheaton Grand a few times, both in one of the 120 smaller theater, and the 750 capacity (seats have been taken out except in the very back) bigger theater. It is apperent the theaters were split up because when you’re in the original room and you look at the ceiling, you can see the huge dome but you can only see half of it. Since I’m only 19 and have never seen the theater only as one screen, I can only imagine it once looked very nice. I live in WHeaton, only a minute from the theater, and hope that it can be restored soon.
