I have yet to see the construction of the new Guthrie Theater in Minneapolis, however, people are already starting to grumble about it costing too much money ($125 million) and will be too difficult to maintain financially afloat. While these are potentially real problems, I just have to wonder why no one brings these questions to the table before the construction process is nearly complete. I don't know, but I guess these things need not be considered in the world of art.

In any case, the overall design looks like it could add to the respectable Minneapolis skyline and thus should put all the patrons in awe before seeing a play. I am looking forward to having a chance to go see it when I make it back to Minnesota in June (the theater opens in June as well), thus I will be able to see it in all of its glory.
