Photos: See inside the former New Orleans Six Flags Amusement Park
The two-story, whitewashed theater, with its Greek columns and round stage, occupies a lonely section of the former Six Flags theme park in New Orleans East.

See inside the New Orleans Six Flags site for first time in years. Here are next steps for revival.
