The producers continued to follow the restoration work underway on
the Interstate Plaza Theatre in El Paso. Final touches are being put
on the new foundation for the enlarged stage. And in the annex area
where there will be a restaurant, commons area, and a children's
theatre, new walls and utilities are underway.
On this trip, the producers also interviewed Betty MacGuire who was
instrumental in saving the theater. Her initial donation and work to
help organize the community effort to support restoration was
critical to the success El Paso has had in saving this 70 year old
movie palace.
