As a young'un, I interviewed with them at one of those SETC-type events. The interviewer said, "So if you want to hang a light over there, the first thing you do is fire up the trencher to lay your cable." "Trencher? Um, no." I thought to myself--I didn't go into this business to operate heavy machinery.

Still sad to see it go. They provided a lot of opportunity and entertainment to the community over the years.
 
looks to be a venue similar to my Alma Mater, The Theatre at Tsa-La-Ghi home of The trails of Tears Outdoor drama for years and years. The First outdoor, open air, air conditioned theatre in the US. Now sitting, moldering.

Here are a couple of other images of this now closed venue in Oklahoma.
The final performance there was in 2005.

Oh The Youth I wasted there....
 
I remember going to see Blue Jacket when I was in elementary school. One of the first productions I ever saw. I've now worked with two people who worked that show: one in lighting, and the other a horse wrangler/horse stunt woman.
