This.....

will light up the Lyric again,  one day very soon. Because of the generous donors, the historic Lyric Theatre will again shine and provide a wonderful venue for our city!

View From the Top

For years I've been blessed with opportunities to photograph the historic Lyric Theatre. When I first stepped inside, years ago, she was in terrible disrepair but as they say, "Her bones were good."  Since then, I've been back and documented the continuing clean up and now the full blown restoration.  Recently I was fortunate to be allowed to come inside and actually stand on the scaffolding and see this gorgeous chandelier up close. I've photographed it previously, but this view was the best!

I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS!!!

I'm a lucky girl. I was there at the Lyric Theatre  yesterday, when Glenny Brock took a deep breath and walked across the scaffolding on the top level and actually got to TOUCH the ceiling detail for the first time. It was a very big deal for all of us who love the Lyric.  The renovation is in full swing,  and I'm so grateful to be able to photograph the progress. It will hard to top Glenny's glee!
