Is this building in Syracuse, NY?

Could be. The Tigris Shrine put on their circuses in the Jefferson Street Armory.

I always hated buildings where

you couldn't have a blackout

for the matinees which is like

doing an outdoor date

This is the Kingston, Pa. armory across the river from Wilkes Barre. I ran lights there for a few years for Hamid. The sun really bet in there for the kiddie matinee.

You only needed to show up

for the evening performances

Paul Gutheil said...

Bob, you forgot to mention that the acoustics are abominable.

Unknown said...

Paul, I always liked the Abominables. There was an old joke with the word Acoustics so I just updated this one.

I believe I wore sun glasses when I ran light for matinees there.

Red & yellow were the scheme

for Gran Circo Panamericano

as well as for the newfangled

tensioned vinyl Beatty tops

To me those colors would look

better with a slender white

separator stripe
