M&M WORLD PLAYHOUSE

Welcome to the M&M

Named after Chris Fortier's favorite candy, M&M's, the M&M Playhouse was built in 1997 replacing an old, ugly, and non-Lego built facility. This playhouse contains 35 dressing rooms, a sound booth with 1500 channels worth of sound, 1000 seats, 4 royal boxes, 2 box offices, 2 terraces to relax on, and a reception area for those cast parties and Symphony sleepovers. Just the best for concert-goers and performers alike.

THE SYMPHONY SERIES

Every Friday evening, the Symphony at Fortier's Lego City plays here at the M&M. The symphony is divided into the Orchestra, the Choir, the Jazz Ensemble, the Dance Series Band, Mozart orchestra, and the Pops. Also, every night, an individual instrument choir performs. Tickets for these shows are $7-$10 at the box office located next to the front door.

Forensic Night

Every Tuesday Night is Forensic Night at the M&M. Some of you may wonder--What is forensics? The forensics talked about here is not cutting up human cadavers to find the cause of death. This forensics is much more bearable to watch, as a matter of fact, you will enjoy it. Nine performances a night are given in the individual categories of Original Oratory, Extemperaneous Speaking, Prose, Poetry, Humorous Interpretation, Dramatic Interpretation, Duo Interpretation, Storytelling, and Impromptu Speaking. Those who enjoy speeches and interpretations should come to these nights. Tickets are $6-$9 at the box office.

See the Original Oratory that touched the lives of many, and won many first places.

Broadside's Eldorado Fortress and Waterfront

Welcome to the Historic Lego Eldorado Fortress and Waterfront. An extension of the Historic District upstairs in the Pierre Level, this district sees much action with ships sailing in and people going for leisurely walks on the Boardwalk. This Eldorado fortress had roots in the late 1750's with Governor Broadside and his many men defending the Lego Colony against the Pirates. These pirates never came, and in 1825, this fortress became a tourist site. The Waterfront has a long Boardwalk with many street vendors coming out during the day. Just across the street from the Interactive Mall of Lego City, this Boardwalk provides a nice and relaxing getaway from shopping and other activities.

LEGO VICTORY RACEWAY PARK

Welcome to the Races! On the Eastside of the Lucette Level, the raceway provides entertainment for families of all types. Every Saturday Night, the streets of the Lucette Level close as the auto racers of many sport divisions tear up the roads to see who is the best auto racer for at least the next week. The races here are not like the Daytona 500 or the Indianapolis 500, but it holds an individual light of its own.

Some of the Groups that compete here:

NASCAR

IROC

CART

Indy Racing League

NMCA (Drag Racing)

NHRA (Drag Racing)

 

FIA (Formula One)

Mayor's Palace

 

Welcome to the Mayor's Palace! Made from a White House 3-D Puzzle, (looks like the White House) this house contains a lot of amenities such as a central vacuuming system, many hired servants, a lot of free food, and of course, LOTS OF ROOMS!!!! This house, though contains a octagon instead of an Oval Office, but who cares? Located across the street from the arena, this place is the place to be for balls and formal state occasions. And no, there are not any sexual scandals going on here, either. (Just in case you were wondering).

IBM Civic Arena

 

Welcome to IBM Civic Arena. This 14,000-seat arena first came into existence in 1983, as a basic Lego-carrying box. The new arena was constructed in March 1998. Many events come here such as the circus or other events that need a stage much larger than the M&M Playhouse provides. The IBM hosts the city's men's basketball team, the Settlers, who want to become a NBA team, the Watermaids, the women's basketball team, hopeful for WNBA membership, and the IceThrashers, the NHL hopeful team. Come be amongst the 19,000 fans in this exciting and joyful atmosphere.

THE CITY AUTHORITY

Welcome to the City Authority. This is what most people refer to as City Hall. At the Lego City of Chris Fortier, things are just a little bit different. The City Authority Building, located on the Waterfront and across the street from the mall houses the Government offices for the City. In this area is the City's Post Office. Want to ship anything? Well, just click on the company, and you will be on your way.

The Coast Guard Center 

Welcome to the Coast Guard Center in the Lego City of Chris Fortier. Our purpose is to protect the citizens enjoying their day in the waterfront and areas beyond our sight. Our center is located next door to the City Authority, or the first building on your left once you enter the city from the south. Operations are run out of a relatively small building, which includes two garage spaces and an upstairs dispatch room. A helicopter is outside to help in tough rescues and location of traffic jams in the city. We also have a boat and two trucks to aid us in our mission also. When we are not in the middle of a tough rescue mission, we patrol the waters regularly and educate people on water safety. Our motto: Better safe than sorry!

St. Christopher Cathedral

The first church in the Lego City of Chris Fortier has opened for worship. There are three Catholic services, one Methodist service, and one Jewish service since the Lego people are of those three religions only. The first phase was built on October 9, 1998 and opened October 10, 1998. Phase one included the main cathedral and the Graveyard on the SE side of the property. The second phase, expected to be open December 20, will include offices and a drive-thru confession. Phase III, opening January 1, 1999 will simply be an expansion of the cathedral. Here are some websites about these three religions. On demand, services for other religions will be added here at the St. Christopher Church.
