Over the holidays, we remodeled rehearsal room A by taking down some of the wall coverings, refinishing the walls and floors, and changing the lighting a bit. I’m sure you will like it even more now. In the next month or so we will be remodeling the Rehearsal Rooms A’s bathroom, as well as experimenting with some new lighting ideas. Cosmic Rehearsals?? We shall see…
