Photos: Johnson Hall Opera House before and after renovations
The Reehl Stage, the 400-seat theater at the newly renovated Johnson Hall Opera House to set to host its first public show Tuesday. That sold-out show featuring The Robert Cray Band, will be followed by former Men at Work lead singer Colin Hay on April 9 and Shawn Colvin and KT Tunstall on April 23. For more information about upcoming shows, see johnsonhall.org. Nearly four decades after Denise Reehl first saw the theater, which was opened in the 19th century as a livery stable, was transformed into an opera house and became home to department stores, a roller-skating rink and a movie theater, she said she is pleased with its ongoing transformation. “With hindsight, I realize there were a lot of years when it was very disappointing and we made no progress,” she says. “But now I think about it, and it was right to do it now because of everything we have in the world and ways to solve problems and materials. It’s just the right time now, and I am sorry (her late husband, Benny Reehl) didn’t get to see it.” All photos by Joe Phelan/Kennebec Journal
