Ironwood, MI

Figures the best group picture we've taken in three years was taken in a bowling alley/bar in Michigan... No, there was no Chili.









The Ironwood theater is a beautiful old space. Emphasis on the old. It reminded us a little bit of Stoughton because of it's size. There was no space backstage and even less masking, so movement was limited. The dressing rooms were a hike through a basement labyrinth that included an old 'trunk slide' where they used to unload the actors' trunks on the sidewalk and toss them into the basement to be transferred to the dressing rooms. The paintings on the ceiling were beautiful, leave it to Steve to count the number of naked breasts present. The show went very well, the audience loved it and although we were a little hesitant at first, we had a good time in Ironwood and would love to come back!
















I love the old fashioned wooden "Performance Today" sign.
