Curtain

Sad to hear that the Pasadena Playhouse is in dire financial trouble to the point of closing and perhaps reneging on subscriptions. It's a great little theater with a rich heritage…and facilities that were always available to those with worthy charity events. I dunno how many benefits and fund-raisers I've attended there for important causes. I suspect its main problem was merely that it was in Pasadena…not easy to get to from much of Southern California. And it didn't have the support of a surrounding bank of great restaurants and other attractions. I hope someone can get something going with that building. It would be a shame to tear it down and open another CVS Pharmacy. (I hear they don't have one anywhere on that block.)
