The 150-seat theatre features modern lighting, rigging, and AV systems; a dance floor with underfloor padding; retractable/removable seating, and a stage that can be used in either thrust or endstage configurations. Seating in the 11,000-square-foot auditorium can be easily cleared and a removable partition at the proscenium can divide the room, allowing for two simultaneous classes.
