Had been wanting to shoot in this building for several years and finally had a chance in October 2020. This theater is being restored to hopefully reopen for the first time since 1987. Everything is original from 1927 and the 1955 renovations and construction lights were the only lights available.
Awesome shot. Where is this?
Columbia Theatre in Paducah, Kentucky.
It's amazing to think of how much beauty is in our own backyards, (NC), that we may never see, except for the pictures we capture....
Good job.
Love the image Nolan , when Cinema was special .I would say you need to go back and photograph it with people and a movie up on the screen
That’s the only uncertain timing. It’s been abandoned since 1987 and is currently being restored. From what I’ve heard it’ll be open within the decade.
That is really nice, there are probably a lot of these theatres in towns all across the country.
