hudson is about preserving the past --- and honoring it. the hudson opera house is now back, after too long. Or was ?
and now we call it something else. Not very consistent. we all like the old time aspect i think. and we know what an "opera house " is in the 19th century sense. we aren't uneducated.
still, do not like the new name. whats the point really ? a bad choice.
ReplyDeleteThe new name and graphics are too weird, no matter what the reasoning is. Sorry they thought it needed to happen. Good luck is all I have to say.

Sad to hear this. Hudson Opera House brings a past with it of elegance and romance. Not liking the new name.
