Main Theatre Space - Dimensions/Staging FUTURE IDEAS - Modular Raised Stage Area and Extra Seating back corridor 4 seats 5 seats 10 seats 5 seats 5 seats 11 seats 12 Seats 13 seats THE IDEA To have a modular raised stage (approximately 60cm 2ft high) that can be used in different combinations Improve audience sight lines for theatre and concerts by raising the stage. Maintain the ability to open Balcony up the space for workshops, cabaret, dance-floor etc. Increase seating capacity to 142 for touring theatre and concerts. Increase seating to 123 for proscenium arch theatre. Improve space and safety with flat floor space rather than the current steps and platforms in the wings. 6x 8x4 sections (in grey) would cover the back curve area with a 24ft x 8ft raised stage (approximately 60cm 2ft high). Together with a corridor this would become a new house state. More sections would be added (as shown with the transparent areas)to create a maximum 34ft x 16ft stage area. This would meet up with the current inner tab track for proscenium theatre. It would create flat floorspace in the wings. Catwalks and other shapes would also be possible.
