Jorgenson Center



The concert hall at the University of Connecticut's main campus in Storrs is the Jorgenson Center.  It was empty when I sneaked in to stand on the stage.

    The color of the chairs is nice. :)
    Did you make a speech?

    It's a beautiful hall. And I always thought you were a "ham," but Hamlet? Sheesh!

    I suspect it was a better choice to try out a few lines of Shakespeare than to break into song.

    I was way in the back, too, and wasn't surprised at all by your eloquent Shakespeare performance, Jack!!

    Did you have a 'soapbox' with you on stage? It is an election year.

    The only way I would get up on that stage would be if the hall was empty like that! Looks like a fantastic venue though. I like all the balcony seating.

    Looks like the seats are comfortable. Did everyone in the audience clap wildly when you stepped onto the stage?

    Very cool design and warm feeling but what's with all the rows of folding chairs in front? It that sometimes used as performance space?

    "Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player
    That struts and frets his hour upon the stage
    And then is heard no more."

    I wonder why the seats in the rear are such a drab color compared with the brighter seats in front?

    Gosh!
    Some people stand in front of so many people again and again....
    A good thing that it very often is dark...

    Nice place, and with a Scandinavian name??
