Goodness. I must be more observant. Thank you for this thread. I've never given the curtains any thought before.

in the heights does not have a curtain when you walk in it is just the scenery.
I really liked Titanic's curtain with the schematic drawings of the ship.
I love revived threads

What I ment to say was can someone post a picture of it the way it is lit when you walk in
sorry
haha random! I've never really noticed, but at the ogunquit playhouse for Hairspray AND Forbidden Broadway they had shimmery, glittery streamer-curtains in addition to the normal ones that were pretty. I'll pay attention more closely next time I see a show!!

Here's the current GREASE revival curtain...
Phantom of The Opera doesn't have a show curtain. When you enter you see the darkened auction set with many different items including the large chandelier all covered up. At the end of Act 1 after the chandelier falls, there's a red velvet curtain that comes down.
I LOVE the Young Frankenstein curtain. Although I mostly just love the title that flashes on it during the overture. It feels like an old horror movie.
Aida
Mamma Mia!
Dracula
The Wedding Singer
Legally Blonde
Ohhhh!! The Woman in White

I remember liking the show curtain for Smokey Joe's Cafe. It was the interior of an old 50s car dashboard.

The GREASE curtain is disgusting, tacky, and just plain horrible...so, yes it suits the production.
WickedRocks - you read my mind.
When I walked into the theater and saw that, I almost threw up.

Wicked and Legally Blonde's are my favorite ones.
These were taken on my cell phone so they aren't so good but....
Dirty Rotten Scoundrels (tour)
Gypsy (tour)
Legally Blonde
And A CATERED AFFAIR doesn't have a curtain...just the empty stage (don't remember what set pieces were on but I think the two fire escape ladders were on) with Winston's suitcase at center.
