Kristin Chenoweth Wows Em at the Winspear » actchandelier

This was the first time I got to see the Winspear's retractable chandelier in full effect. Very cool. After the show, someone who was involved with its construction showed me pics on his iPhone of what the chandelier can REALLY do. Apparently this is top secret. But the thing can assume all sorts of shapes, and it can produce every color imaginable.

A red carpet greeted the black-tie crowd. Tickets for the entire Act III program of events started at $5,000. I saw Charles Wyly shortly after arriving. I wonder if they made him buy a ticket.
Last night was the first time they rolled up the glass walls of the Winspear. While some of the women in slinky dresses were a little taken aback by the chill in the air as they entered the lobby from the performance hall, I thought it was magical.
