manitoba royal theater
from keanu reeves posted in movies by elvis_crabs
The Reeve-ster (or K-Pax, or K-Wood) played Hamlet at this theater in 1995. It was something of a cultural event for Winnipeg, and the show sold-out every night. The city set up a Keanu hotline where they could call with sightings of the actor.
Most people thought he would be horrible, yet he received positive (if not glowing) praise for arguably one of the toughest acting roles.
Well done, K-Swiss.
the plaza hotel

The Beatles stayed here during their first trip to the United States. The throngs of fans forced them to stay in the hotel.
In London, there was one station, and the amount of radio stations in New York fascinated them. They ended up calling the radio stations to request songs.
