Hello All -
I am trying to revive a 1920's vintage stage & theater to it's original splendor. This is a 1500+ seat theater with a Davis Dimmer and really old lights that dim the rest of the city (Madison, WI) when I turn them on. You can smell electricity - Nikola Tesla would love this place. It is a Masonic Temple that is home to five Masonic Lodges and a really grand theater. I'm the Worshipful Master of one of the Lodges and have no theatrical experience.
A very Beautiful building built in 1923. Lack of maintenance and management has really taken a toll and the building needs to start generating revenue. This room is the square footage that is going to need to finance the rest of the building. EVERYTHING needs to be updated, there is a glut of stage space in town, and I have (basically) no budget.
I've got Full Compass in my back yard and I've had some really good conversations with them - but I'm really looking forward to seeing what this group, Control Booth, has to offer. I'm hoping everyone here can help me get edgeumacated!
My first goal is to get the light board replaced (really cool sparks come flying out) then get some cash flow.
Looking forward to working with you all.
