DEAR HIV, WE DIDN’T GIVE UP. XOXO, SCIENCE There is no cure, but science is still in the battle against HIV. Today’s HIV treatments taken every day as prescribed can help you get to and stay undetectable. That means the amount of virus is so low it can’t be measured by lab tests. Research shows that staying undetectable means there’s effectively no risk of transmitting HIV through sex. Ask your healthcare provider about HIV and treatment options.

Frank & Llen Ryan Marietta, Georgia

FRANK&LLENCARE You know the “in sickness and in health” marriage vow? In 53 years, Frank and Llen Ryan have really put it to the test. Heart issues, skin cancer, prostate cancer, debilitating back pain — they’ve faced it all together. And with Wellstar’s expert care, things have come out “for better” — not worse. These days, Llen gardens and walks daily, thanks to a successful spine surgery. And Frank fights back against Parkinson’s with the help of our special boxing classes, prescribed by his Wellstar neurologist. No two happily married couples are exactly alike, and at Wellstar, we would never treat them that way.

2. Take care of personal needs (water, restroom use) before the performance begins.

3. P lease silence or turn off all electronic devices, including cellphones, beepers and watch alarms. We encourage you to share your experience via social media but please refrain from doing so or texting during performances. The glow from your device is distracting.

4. Most shows do not allow photography of any kind. Flash photography inside the theater is never allowed. It distracts those around you and endangers the performers.

5. The overture is part of the performance.

Please cease talking at this point.

6. D ear lovebirds, when you lean your heads together, you block the view of those behind you. Please consider those seated behind you when choosing whether to wear a hat or what hairstyle you choose.

7. Please refrain from talking, humming or singing along with the show, except when encouraged to do so by the artists or show.

8. Please wait for an appropriate moment to dig something out of your pocket or bag.

9. G o easy with the perfume and cologne, many people are highly allergic.

10. I f you need assistance during the show, please go to your nearest volunteer usher. If additional assistance is needed, the usher will get the appropriate person to further help you.

11. Y es, the parking lot gets busy and public transportation is tricky, but leaving while the show is in progress or before the actors have taken their final bows is discourteous. Please wait until the bows are over and exit with the rest of the audience.

FOX FUN FACTS

THE MIGHTY ‘MO” Holy, Möller! The theater’s mighty organ has a few years to its credit, and quite a set of pipes The Fox Möller Opus 5566 Theatre Organ is the second-largest theater organ in the United States (smaller only than the instrument at New York’s Radio City Music Hall). It sort of makes sense: the Fox auditorium has 4,655 seats, while Radio City boasts 6,015.

The term “theater organ” originally referred to a pipe organ designed to imitate an orchestra and accompany silent films, but as the instrument evolved, new designs and sounds were incorporated.

Fox audiences have M.P. Möller to thank for the organ affectionately known as “Mighty Mo.” Möller immigrated to the United States in 1872 and, three years later, founded the M.P. Möller Pipe Organ Co. in Greencastle, Pa. The city of Hagerstown, Md., noticed his early success and convinced him to relocate. He did so in 1881.
