Colonial Opera House, Big Rapids, MI. I really hope that's somebody's house next door to it. That's where I'd want to live too.
City Hall and Opera House (what a nice combination) in Derby, CT. Still standing! And may even have ghosts.
Exterior and interior of Piper's Opera House in Virginia City, NV. Built in 1885, abandoned by 1940, but subsequently restored and now back in active service. I want to see what would happen if the Met had advertising like that in its auditorium.
The Detroit Opera House. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think it's still there. Michigan Opera lives elsewhere now.
The Arcade Opera House Block in Kankakee, IL. It's still standing, after a fashion, though its present day state is depressingly dull.
That'll do for tonight. I still wish I could step, Mary Poppins-like, into these images.
