Grand Re-Opening Gala for Carson City Community Center Theater

Carson City celebrated the grand re-opening of the newly remodeled Bob Boldrick Theatre in style with a black tie gala Tuesday night.

“Who is John Galt” is the opening line of the Ayn Rand’s most popular novel “Atlas Shrugged.” In Carson City, the question being asked by the general public now that the spotlight is on the revitalization of the Bob Boldrick theater is “Who is Bob Boldrick?”
