Earl Carroll Theatre

"As part of the revamp, the signature sign will be recreated and returned to its spot over the entrance. Many original elements of the theater that still remainincluding 6,200 feet of blue and gold neon tubing and 30-foot-tall light columns on either side of the stagewill also be restored as part of the new venue."

The Earl Carroll Theater has gone all retro on on us!

Come see ME, the Earl Carroll Theatre...

The Earl Carroll Theater at 6230 Sunset Boulevard just east of Vine Street must really have been a striking sight to seeespecially at night with that enormous ...neon face of one of the 60 chorus members that were featured each night at what was billed as the largest legitimate theater in the world. This photo was taken in 1947, a year before Earl and his girlfriend Beryl died in a plane crash, after which the place became the Moulin Rouge. See more

In honor of the lovely Beryl Wallace, born on this day in 1912, I am launching the crowdfunding campaign for my next book, one that's been in the works for more than five years. People often ask me how they can assist with my research and writing endeavors or how they can get involved with one of my creative projects. Well, THIS IS IT! I hope you will look over the details, watch the video, and consider making a contribution. --Randy Schmidt
