» The Apex lady, Nanta Tansacha, found herself in an uneasy spotlight two years ago when Siam Theatre was burned down, gutted by the May-hem flames to ashes and rubbish. "When I watched it burn, on TV, it was like I was watching a film," she told the Bangkok Post in June 2010. Now, Nanta has found herself in another nervous limelight _ another dramatic movie if you'd permit the analogy _ when news broke last month that Lido Theatre, and probably the stately Scala, too, might soon be razed to make way for new malls.
