  hahaha... well. Interestingly enough, this roof completely collapsed in the fire. Perhaps if they would have work instead of posing...

  Since that is a Master Stream they are operating, I would hedge a guess that the structure under them is not on fire, but an adjacent structure (the theater) next door and by the time that appliance it put in service, the structure is a total loss. So there isn't much to be done except keep it from spreading to the other occupancies. So, time for a pic. Just a thought.

  Actually, they are on the roof of the Empress Theatre, which was built in the back on the Capitol Theatre, right behind the flyrail section. The Empress was a total loss and so was the flyrail and the stage section of the Capitol (fire originated under the wooden stage of the Capitol). The building wasn't a total loss though since the rest of seating area of the Capitol as well as outside brick walls were damaged but structurally safe - they fixed them but they are still there today :)
