My hometown is where the Ringling Bros. Circus started. One of the brothers used some of his circus fortune to build a theatre[0] in 1915. It fell in disrepair, and they only did bits and pieces of restoration while I was growing up. Then a few years ago they got enough funding to do a ton of restoration, and it is beautiful. Thankfully, the people in charge of it decided to stop trying to compete with the modern cinemas of neighboring towns by showing new movies on the old screen and projector, and now they do classic movie nights alongside various live performances.
