We recently took a tour of the fabulous Fox Theatre and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I learned a lot of information about this impeccably preserved magnificent landmark that has been designated a National Historic Landmark and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Originally built in the late 1920s as the Yaarab Temple Shrine Mosque, it has survived depression, mortgage foreclosure, bankruptcy, competition, and a force which affects all of us, age. Through the work of volunteers and skilled artisans, The Fox Theatre has not only survived but been restored to its original opulent grandeur. Today, it regally hosts a variety of programs - theatre shows (such as The Phantom of the Opera, Riverdance, Radio City Christmas Spectacular), Delta International Series' musical presentations (opera, Gilbert and Sullivan, Mozart, ballet), weddings and receptions, corporate affairs and cocktail parties. Whether it be in The Egyptian Ballroom, The Grand Salon, The Arcade, on The Terrace or the Theatre Stage, your wedding, reception or party will be unrivaled.
