Front of building moving right along!




Well!!!! It is the middle of November and work is still going on in front of the building. Now I was told when this project started in May that it would probably be done and over with sometime in August. But dummy me. I forgot to ask, "what year"? Seriously though, I don't think it's going to get finished by the time the snow flies because then it will be too cold to work, it will be too windy, blah blah blah.... So, I am predicting that phase 1 of the front of the building will be finished by August of 2011 and just maybe the 2nd phase will start in May of 2011. All of this may change subject to the planets, the alignment of the stars, which way the wind blows on most days on the first thursday of the month, and if the sun doesn't shine midnight on December 31st then and only then maybe this project will get finished.

Welcome Back Joe Leuzzi


Hip hip hooray!!!!! He's back! For those of you that may not know Joe Leuzzi, he is maintenance man/janitor/jack of all trades. He has been out on a medical leave because he had a heart valve replaced and he is doing wonderfully. However, he moos periodically probably because he got a valve from a cow. He's moooovelous!

Lions and Tigers and Bears! Oh my!






The Lorain Palace Theater has marked another successful year of summer youth theater! July 30th, 31st, and August 1st, the Lorain Palace Youth Theater celebrated its 33rd year with a production of The Wizard of Oz. More than seventy students ages eight to eighteen participated in the three shows. Each night the theater was filled to its licensed capacity of 650 people! The shows went wonderfully, but that is only half of the program. The other half is the six weeks prior to the show, when students are taught all aspects of theater- costumes, props, lights, sets, acting, dancing, and safety. Lorain Palace Theater Executive Director, John Handyside, would like to thank the parents for sharing their children and thank the staff for their time and effort. "They've just been stellar. The best in thirty-three years!" says John. Jessica Smith has been the producer of the Palace Youth Theater for five years. She says, "This has been the BEST show overall. The cast, crew, staff, sets, costumes, EVERYTHING came together beautifully to create a professional, Broadway show. I'm so proud of everyone's hard work and determination during those six short weeks, and I hope PYT continues to raise the bar on children's theatre, and continue to bring the community together through the arts."
