Location #20 - Curtain Calls
Abstract metal sculptures wrangle to earth the myriad of emotions portrayed on stage in the long history of Asheville Community Theatre. The current playhouse, nestled among dozens of live theatre venues throughout the North Carolina mountains, stages classics, innovative new shows and, in its black box theater on the lower level, storytelling evenings and other live happenings. (Relief sculptures by artist Stan Blackstone.)
