Out with the Old to Prepare for the New

On Tuesday, April 10, removal of NCT's seats began.
Clearing out all 690 of them was a huge job.

Beginning with the back of house right, the rows were unscrewed, pried and
yanked away from the floor that had held them for almost 50 years.

By Thursday afternoon, after three days of hard work, the seats were gone,
and the cleared room is ready for the next step.

That next step was removing the boards from the stage floor!
(The plus shaped bit that remains is the trap door.
You can just still make out the checkerboard floor treatment from Schoolhouse Rock Live!)

The boards were pulled from the stage and tossed into the empty theatre.

Another step completed.

NCT continues to raise funds for this long-overdue physical improvement. If you'd like more information,
or to make a donation, please e-mail Allison Dillon, NCT managing director, or Paige Byron.
Or call them at (615) 254-9103.
