The El Portal is in the NoHo arts district - lots of theaters, but a bit off the beaten track. The theater was a grand movie palace in its day. We're not in the space where they did the 70 Girls 70 concert, that's their big theater - seats 350. We're in their smaller 99 seat space, which shares the same lobby and the same good vibe.
No stairs to climb, so easier for older folks. And the lobby is gorgeous, as is the forecourt and the marquee. Plus, I like being wanted. We're meeting about it tomorrow, but a lot will depend on what the set designer says, which I won't know until he calls me and we make arrangements to meet.
