The Kings Theater had a beautiful and faithful restoration through a partnership of government and business interests. They managed it without a group like FOL in the process.

The Kings also holds a number of events for the community with local groups and BIDs. There's no single gatekeeping NPO who requires a specific number of days and is the arbiter of the kind of events that take place there.

I'd much rather have the new management of the Loew's committed to working with a number of local groups than force them to work with a single group with a particular vision of the purpose of that theater.

Yea, generally if you can't put your hand inside/behind and pop it back out, you're going to end up replacing it for those plastic parts.

If it were me, I'd give exactly that a shot. If I can do it and looks good, yay, I just saved money. If not, going to replace it anyway. No harm in trying.
