The next stop on the trip was the Okla Theatre in McAlester, Oklahoma. The Okla opened on July 10, 1931 and closed on September 4, 1989. The city of McAlester is currently trying to restore and reopen the theater. For more information check out their website: http://www.oklatheater.com/

After the Final Curtain 
Cool they’re restoring it
Though your fotos are telling a stunning story, it breaks my heart to see these theatres.
What happened, that made people abandone and forget these beautiful buildings, I ask myself.
Truly beautiful buildings with an atmosphere each of their own.
