The Orpheum Theater

 

Saturday evening, I went to another Phoenix Symphony concert and this time it was at The Orpheum instead of Symphony Hall.  I hadn't been inside the Orpheum Theater in a long time so it was nice to see it once again.  I featured some photos of the outside of this historic theater back in 2019.  You can see those here.  

The top photo is looking forward toward the stage and this photo is looking toward the back and the balcony above the theater.  I love the lighting they use to light up the ceiling.

This photo just concentrates on the details above the proscenium arch.  I love the seven rows of ribbons that frame the stage.  Each one has a different pattern. They don't build theaters like this any longer.

Tomorrow I'll show you some details from the lobby area.  It was exciting to once again be inside this historic building.

Lovely, Sharon. If the music is not to one's taste, the details give a place for the mind to wander.
