1. You are so lucky to have seen the inside. I was there last November and it was all closed up. Has it opened again for awhile?

   • I have spent a great deal of time at Death Valley Junction and knew Marta Becket. I don’t know what is happening there now, especially since the rains and flooding this past summer. I plan to stop by soon. Hopefully it’s okay. The interior of the Opera House is magnificent. Marta was quite a force.

     • I’ve read about the interior and would love to see it. Marta Becket sounds like she was quite a wonderful woman.

     • I met Marta in 2009. Around 2011 I started spending a lot of time at DVJ photographing it. There was a documentary done on Marta Becket called “Amargosa”. It’s really wonderful. You can access it via Amazon Prime. I highly recommend it. It captures a lot of what attracts me to the area. https://watch.amazon.com/detail?gti=amzn1.dv.gti.92a9f749-3d0b-1887-a56a-330e2bd9e14c&territory=US&ref_=share_ios_movie&r=web
