Yowza! That was pretty entertaining to watch. Wow, those guys must have really strong groin muscles… lifting themselves up like that from doing the splits. Yowza!

Max Wilson Tue, 22 Aug 2006 16:36:31 +0000 I’d be tempted to try to buy a theater like that if I were wealthy. It is sad to see so many beautiful old theaters being demolished to make space for modern society. Despite the miracles of modern technology, there really is nothing like seeing a live performance. In college, some friends of mine and I put together a vaudeville-ish variety show. That project is what later lead us into puppetry. We still sometimes bounce around the idea of a variety show hosted by a puppet master of ceremonies we call Tom Foolery… I’d be tempted to try to buy a theater like that if I were wealthy.

It was in Today’s Salt Lake Tribune. I have worked in theater for a long time, and at one point I put a group together to investigate the purchase of the old Promised Valley Playhouse from the Church when it was moth-balled about ten years ago in favor of a parking structure.
