    Wonderful Theatre: I think this is one of the most amazing sites in St. Louis. Between the decor, and the fact that evey single thing I have ever seen in this place I have loved. This place is made for live performances. Great acoustics.

    Great treat: Classic art-deco decor. Egyptian motifs done elegantly and sunptuously. Take the backj stage tour on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays. It is well worth the 10 bucks. Lots of living history. The theater was lovingly restored from beyond oblivion by some locals and their loving attention to detail is very evident.
