5/23/12 Internship


On May 23 I worked from 9:00 AM until 4:00 PM for a total of seven hours worked. I have worked for a total of 32 hours at THS. On May 23 I worked on sorting through old theatre program files. 
I also worked on doing research on the Paramount Theatre in Brooklyn, New York. The Paramount Theatre in Brooklyn, New York is an old theatre that is currently used by Long Island University as a gymnasium.

I was doing the research for an architecture firm that was interested in possible restoring the building. I needed to find the original blueprints so that they knew what the theatre looked like when it was designed. The blue prints I found can be seen below. All photographs of the blue prints were taken by myself and belong to THS.








I found researching the Paramount Theatre to be very rewarding and it was especially interesting to go over the blue prints.
