Le Temple du Mormon...


There will be more posts soon, don't you worry. This is a spectacular place. As a theatre practitioner, I am dumbfounded by the topographical layout, the design, the architecture, the traffic flow, and what culminates to a profound sense of mythos. As I was walking through here with Debbie tonight, this song kept popping into my mind:

We're off to see the Wizard
The Wonderful Wizard of Oz
We hear he is a Whiz of a Wiz
If ever a Wiz there was
If ever, oh ever, a Wiz there was
The Wizard of Oz is one because
Because, because, because, because, because
Because of the wonderful things he does
We're off the see the wizard
The Wonderful Wizard of Oz

Now you may think I'm being facetious, but I tell you the feeling was true. There is an aura a la the fantasies of L. Frank Baum. It casts a spell, that's most certain.

Take a look at Corporate. Even that building has an epic flavor to it.

  2. remind me to share the movie "the mountain of the lord" with you sometime. if you look past the blatant propaganda, there's actually an incredible, moving story of the building of the temple in slc.
