On Thursday, 24 March I took the kids to see the live show, Dora the Explorer in the Search for the City of Lost Toys. It was at the beautiful St. James Theatre in downtown Wellington.
Absolutely gorgeous and fancy schmancy for a Dora show!
St James Theatre - A Building Ahead of its Time
"When His Majesty's Theatre (later to become the St James) was built in 1912, it was the largest vaudeville and picture theatre in Australasia. Inside, the auditorium was highly ornamental, featuring elaborate cherubs, plaster curlicues and painted and gilded lyres, horns, harps, dancing cupids and masks representing Comedy, Drama and Opera. In the mid 1980s, the St James Theatre, although recognised as one of the country's most valuable treasures, faced the threat of demolition." courtesy www.stjames.co.nz
I took probably 10 photos to get one half way decent one. :)
Waiting anxiously to see ol' Dora and her pals.
Chocolate ice cream bars at intermission!
