We know it's been a while since you've been able to view a live performance at the Wex. As we make tentative plans to bring back in-person performance this fall, enjoy this look inside Mershon Auditorium courtesy of photographer and Wex projectionist Rachael Barbash. Her photo gallery includes views of spaces the public rarely, if ever, gets to see, including the theater's vintage projection booth. "I feel like I'm part of history when I'm working in the Mershon booth," Barbash says. "You think about everyone who has worked up there before you and the films they might have run."
We're looking forward to welcoming you back inside soon. In the meantime, there's lots to watch in our virtual screening rooms and on Tuesday, June 2, we'll share an online presentation of the performance installation work HYSTERIA! by Raja Feather Kelly. More details will be available here in the coming days.
