The historic Tampa Theatre reopens after being closed for an entire year due to the Covid pandemic. This is my experience on the first night back via the screening of ‘The Father’ starring Anthony Hopkins.

I only have one word-stunning. We had one similar in Sacramento and it was razed to build a Safeway.😩 Jay, you are an “old soul” in the way you love these precious landmarks from the past, similar to Adam the Woo in that respect. When the organ rose from the orchestra pit and the organist began to play, I couldn’t believe it. Thank you for taking us along, this was an amazing video.💙

That theater looks so amazing! Reminds me of the palace theatre here in my town, ours also has an organ that rises from the floor. It was open in the mid 1920s & thankfully was saved from the wrecking ball back in the early 80s. They opened ours up late summer last year.

Thank you SO much for sharing your experience with us! I saw Gone With the Wind there around 1970 and it is a gorgeous theater! I am so glad it has survived. I especially enjoyed the Wurlitzer show. They had a Wurlitzer at Lake Brantley High School in Altamonte Springs where my son went to school and they often used it during musicals the students put on and I loved hearing it. Thanks again for sharing a part of old Florida that still lives!

This building is so beautiful, I love all the original carvings, moldings and that ceiling is amazing, it looks like the night sky. I love how they restored all the seats and all of those antiques too. You don't see original ticket booths like that very often, that one is amazing. The guy playing the organ was really cool to see too, is the organ original to the theater, because it was beautiful too. Thank you again for sharing another amazing and wonderful video. Happy Friday, and have a beautiful, wonderful and amazing weekend Jay!!!🤗💖🤗💖🤗💖🤗

There's a Theater in Knoxville that is like that Theater it's huge as well. It's called the Tennessee Theater and they show both screen and stage performances. A lot of Broadway shows come to the Tennessee Theater. It's a beautiful Theater you have there just like Tennessee. If you ever visit Tennessee you should visit the Tennessee Theater I believe you would enjoy it 😎✌️

The movie is a great way for us with no experience with someone with Alzheimer's or Dementia(Which my mother suffered through) can see life from their Eratic and Confusing perspective. Thanks for this we needed to see some classic Movie Theatre views!
