I guess it was in February of this year, and we were trying to decide whether
we were going to do this show here in New York City or whether we were going to
go to California and do it.
And one day, we came to the theater, and it was cold, nasty, rainy, chilly,
ugly day, and we came into the Ed Sullivan Theater, and frankly, in those days,
this theater was kind of a dump.
It was like big choking clouds of smoke and standing water, and so obviously it
appealed to us right away.
But the transformation that this facility has undergone since those early days
is truly a thing of wonder, and we thought maybe tonight you people would get a
kick out of looking at how the theater was back there in February, and the
progress and the wonderful job that has taken place virtually nonstop since
then to transform it into this wonderful new facility.
Go ahead, Hal. Roll the videotape of the theater in progress.
I had a dream, I had an awesome dream, people in the park playing games in the
dark, and what they played was a masquerade, from behind the walls of doubt, a
voice was crying out.
Oh, say you, say me, say for always, that's the way it should be.
Say you, say me, say you together, truly.
As we go down life's lonesome highway, see the heart in the end, there's a
thing between the two.
That helping hand, someone who understands, when you feel you lost it, you've
got to see it.
So, very impressive.
I want you to, I want you folks to help me welcome and really say thank you to
the men and women who worked nonstop, tirelessly, around the clock, and who did
such a wonderful job renovating this theater.
Folks, the people who did all the hard work, our construction workers.
Paul, bring them in here.
