Looking into the plenum from a doorway backstage right. It got converted into an events space in 2011. Live Nation is calling it "The Chamber." Beyond that center column there's a door with a green exit sign above that goes out to the ladies lounge area. Photo: Bill Counter - 2023
A look under what had once been the orchestra pit. At the top of the image we're looking at the slab below what had been the front row of seats. Photo: Bill Counter - 2023
