Paramount Theatre Blade Lighting

Let there be light! On Wednesday night, Sept. 23, veteran Paramount Theatre usher Flo Thompson threw the switch that turned on all 1,386 bulbs in the re-creation of the Paramount’s classic blade. Illuminating the sign was the, um, highlight of a celebration that included speeches from Paramount staff and dignitaries such as Sen. Kirk Watson, and music from the New Breed Brass Band. The energy-efficient LEDs in the new blade allow it to be powered by a single 110-volt plug.
