The greening of the theater has begun.       
The application of the exterior insulation began in April and is complete. Kevin Welsh the contractor for this innovative project, has glued & fastened rigid foam insulation to the cement block exterior. The seams of the foam have been taped and sealed with Flexcoat, a thin stucco finish. The utilitarian block has been transformed into an attractive finish that will reduce our energy consumption considerably.  
In May the new metal roof is being installed by Pulsifer’s Construction.  The roof will not only replace our worn shingles, but supply the necessary ventilation to keep our attic insulation dry.   Installation rain gutters and down spouts will finish out the project.  
The front of the building is getting a new look, also,  The single pain upper windows have been removed and replaced with insulated stucco insets.   The exterior facelift will be complete when the main entrance of the building is repainted.

As a partner with the YES team, we are looking at alternative energy sources, solar or wind, to further reduce our energy consumption. We have just started researching LED stage lighting as another way to continue our move to a GREENER building and decreasing our carbon imprint on the planet.
