Title	Leadville Opera House, 1933
Creator(s)	Current, Ira B.
Summary	This view of the Tabor Opera House in Leadville, Colorado, from the upper balcony across the loge towards the right side of the stage includes the curved balcony rail, Andrews patent ornate cast iron opera chairs with upholstered seats and backs, mounted Elks head, steam radiator, fan, bulb lit proscenium and a spotlight ray towards an upper window. The stage has a painted flat of an interior with bay window, marble columns, and wainscot, framed by a painted draped curtain. This set is a part of Muriel Wolle's University of Colorado scenery project in which a group of students, professors, and an old stage manager located and set up original canvas flats and drops to document and photograph, while she sketched each set and made color notes which were developed into large watercolor paintings.
