MAJOR COMING ATTRACTION: STRAND THEATER 93rd ANNIVERSARY GALA. TUESDAY SEPTEMBER 29th bY Calvin Schwartz 9-21-15

 

1.  strand at night

 

 

A while back, I was invited to the Strand Theatre as a journalist. And so began my love affair to remember with this magnificent theatre, built in 1922, and a recent National Historical Landmark. Carry me back to the days when deco meant art with exquisite attention to a theatre’s detail. Sitting on stage, bathed in warm saffron chandelier light, I was in a museum, back to the splendor of 1920’s.  I spent that afternoon exploring the theatre; from sitting in a dressing room, bright light bulbs highlighting my exuberant face to all the trappings of the real backstage world. I love this theatre.

Suddenly the image of the movie Field of Dreams comes to mind (writing this) remembering I’m a stream of consciousness guy. So if the Strand builds (provides) great entertainment into their programming, then they (you) will come. And that’s exactly what’s been happening at the Strand. One of my other conscious thoughts is to exhort readers to get off the sedentary sofa and celebrate the Strand. Perhaps you live only once works here too; get out and enjoy yourself.

The Strand Center for the Arts Board of Directors cordially invites everyone to celebrate the life of theater at their 93th Anniversary Gala on Tuesday, September 29th with cocktails, fare and entertainment by the fantastic Kevin Gilmore and Scott Solomon.  Tickets are $100 in advance by mail or purchased online ($5 fee per ticket). For more info:   www.strand.org   or lori@strand.org
