Photos of You at the Egyptian
Wanted for Myspace Gallery
We've noticed a lot of people taking photos of
themselves in front of the Egyptian Theatre over the years and some of the poses are
really quite original!
We'd love to see your photos and then we
thought... "wouldn't it be cool to have a gallery of them on myspace... and wouldn't
it be cool if it were the world's largest collection of photos of people at the Egyptian
Theatre, Hollywood's most historic, still-standing movie palace..." Its certainly
what theatre founder Sid Grauman would have done if myspace had existed in 1922. He was a
master showman and always did everything BIG. Just look at our theatre!
So click below and add your photo and comments
(where you are from, the date of the photo and anything else you'd like to say about that
day). We hereby open our gallery to the world on this 3rd day of August in the year 2006!
