!! They’re finally renovating the old abandoned art deco theatre near my old uni. I used to live basically opposite this abandoned theatre (which was extra weird considering that at the time I was a drama student/state musical theatre performer using the “superceding” theatre that was falling to fucking bits and later earmarked for demolition with no replacement planned).
This is only how I ever saw it (though usually more often the sides and back) walking around it at night, coming back from the ferry terminal not far behind it in the park. Sooooo coooooolllll lookinggggg. I’m so glad it’s being fixed up. The arts aren’t dying!
Edit: OH, the drama studio and theatre were only temporarily closed to remove asbestos. That’ll be what that white powder was all over the dressing rooms LOL
Edit edit: Oh, it’s still closed yeah because it’s not financially viable to do up the other theatre due to the extent of the asbestos contamination. (Well, fuck, guys. What are you gonna do? That theatre and studio are built into the side of a hill and quite literally support the union hahhahahah seriously tho, the union building is built on top, as is the main refectory... hello. Ahhh, uni politics from 2015 still going onnnnnn)
Edit edit edit: they’re not being forward about where all the drama and performances were relocated to. I know the state musical theatre company moved out to another place near the inner city tho. Hrmmm
