Congratulations and best wishes on this fantastic development. As a control-freak myself, I understand the concern about your plan and dreams; But please don’t let that fear hinder you unnecesarily, as things progress. It is wonderful to have a great, old, restored theater – but even better, if it is used and appreciated by many for the future; And that means that you have to consciously involve people [even volunteers, local organizations, whatever], at any chance you can. A little frustration here and there, can pay off
with a better restoration and bigger and functioning community asset down the road.
If you ever plan to get to NYC let me know.
Just saw “We are Marshall”, the new movie, today; And was astounded
by it. What a fantastic thing to have it open at this great old
Huntington theater. [i however did not see it there; but instead in NYC; I hope to travel to see Huntington and this theater some day – as the movie about the real life event is now among my all time favorites – go see it if you haven’t already]
