The exciting new venue known as Dodger Stages had a special ceremony on September 9 to open the theater complex's doors. Theater great Mandy Patinkin served as the master of ceremonies. (What's the connection you ask? His new show
Mandy Patinkin in Concert will play at Dodger Stages.) The female ensemble of
42nd Street joined the celebration (in costume, of course) and indeed they lit the lights and everyone cheered!
