The only Stagedoor Johnnies these days, are the pigeons that have made their home in the balconies for years.
This week I'm heading into uncharted territory. For the first time on BADP, I will be featuring a weeklong series of photographs from Birmingham's historic
Lyric Theater. I've featured photos from previous photo shoots. Recently my friend and Alabama Theater volunteer Tom Cronier, was able to help me and my fellow shooters, Mike, LaTrelle, and Rip have a chance to get in and have a look around. The Lyric was built in 1913 and for many years was a grand vaudeville house. The years have not been kind, but it is in the slow and laborious process of being restored by Birmingham Landmarks Inc., and we in Birmingham have high hopes. In the meantime, the disrepair makes for some interesting shots. I hope you enjoy the series.
Here are two very nice videos that you will enjoy here and here.
