Our ceiling specialist, Duane Wilson, and his crew are hard at work completing maintenance and repairs ahead of the 2026–27 performance season.

Preserving the beauty of our one-of-a-kind 1970s building is a labor of love, and it takes a dedicated team of specialists. Duane’s decades of experience and deep knowledge of our distinctive ceiling are invaluable to keeping E.J. Thomas Hall special for generations to come.

Later this week, we’ll introduce you to Dwayne and take you ABOVE the scenes to see his remarkable work hundreds of feet above the stage.
