Daddy Warbucks at the Mt.Baker Theater



Yesterday night was spent at the Mt.Baker Theater downtown, watching the live Broadway production of Annie. The music and story line were so classically Broadway in that fuzzy, heartwarming sense. Sitting there, on the balcony of the newly refurbished and rennovated main stage (a 4 million dollar project I hear), it felt so fitting that a musical set in the great depression should be played in times when many of us are feeling the effects of a tight wallet and a country in economic turmoil.

Here are a few shots I took of the inside of the main stage from the balcony view (this being my first time on the balcony, I was quite surprised by the exceptional view of the musicians!). There arn't any visible rennovation changes in these pictures, but apparently the theaters circulation systems are functioning much better and the electrical system has been put up to standard.






C'est fantastique, n'est pas?
