This photograph shows the Taylor Building with the Brown Music Building to the right. The Taylor Building, usually called “Taylor Theatre,” was designed by J. Hyatt Hammond of Greensboro, North Carolina, and was opened in 1967. The building was named in honor of William Raymond Taylor, the University’s “Father of Drama,” who founded the Play-Likers drama troupe in 1925 and the Parkway Playhouse in Burnsville, North Carolina, in 1947. The Brown Music building, originally called the Music Building, was designed by Harry Barton, of Greensboro, North Carolina, and was opened in 1925. In 1960, the building was named in honor of Wade R. Brown, head of the Department of Music from 1912 to 1936. The building remained home to the School of Music until 1999, when the new Music Building was completed. It is currently called the Brown Building.
