An Evening at the Fox Theatre

The Fox Theatre is a Performing Arts Theatre opened in 1928 as a flagship movie palace in the Fox Theatre chain [the others were in Brooklyn, Atlanta, St. Louis, and San Francisco]. It was built by film pioneer William Fox.  The theatre was acquired by new owners in 1988 and fully restored at a cost of $12 million.  It is one of Detroit's crown jewels.  

Last Friday, Jerry and I had tickets for the 8:00 p.m. performance of Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat.  It was awesome!




I was a shutterbug inside the ornate and luxurious lobby.

No photography was allowed during the performance, but my hubby got one of the stage during intermission.  It was a sell-out performance.


The only connection to tea in this post are the teacups on my sweater! ;-)  It was a fun evening, and we will be returning in December for Moscow Ballet's Great Russian Nutcracker.
