A Tour of the United Palace Theater

 The Lowes United Palace Theater is a 1930s movie hall when they were the "it" place to go. Last Sunday there was a tour of the place that Ed and I went to.

You might have actually heard of this. It is in Washington Heights and Lynn Manual Miranda has donated a lot of time, money and marketing time to rebuild it up to it's history. This will be the home of the 2023 Tony Awards. The first I know of so far from Broadway.

The Movie Palace from the street.

You cannot really believe the detail. I'm going to post some pictures, but they don't really do the place justice.

Some of the detail inside.

More from the lobby. That is a statue of Eros, Goddess of the Sunrise. The rest are just amazing
