Beautiful Hershey Theater





Tate and I toured the magnificent Hershey Theater today. Built between 1929-1933, it was part of Milton Hershey's "Great Building Campaign" during the Great Depression. It is truly a beautiful building. Tate enjoyed running through the marble lined corridors, climbing the stairs to the sound and lighting booth, listening to the powerful organ, and gazing at the theater ceiling that appears as a night sky with projected clouds and stars. These pictures show the exterior of the theater, a gold plated ceiling in the entry way, the fancy ladies room, the stage, and Tate taking in the scenery.

So fabulous...I can see why you'd want to live there! I want to live by a chocolate factory too!
