A tv production i was working on just shot there. As an L.A. native I’d heard about this place. I had always imagined it to be a small theatre like the Vista just down the street from where i live. So I was awed by the scale of the place. I went up and wandered around the balcony. Sadly the place looks like it needs major structural repair. Various crew members pointed out cracked, sagging beams, severe water damage, etc. Yet the place still looks amazing..the red-eyed demon, the carved harpies…if this place bites the dust it will be further proof of how little LA values its cultural heritage..
