Le Quai

Angers, France

Luc Boegly/Architecture Studio

Theatre Projects collaborated with one of France’s leading architectural firms to design this new cultural center, which aims to enhance the work of some of France’s most prestigious artistic groups.

The main auditorium is a 900-seat proscenium theatre, which adapts to a 600 seater for drama and music events. The center also includes a flexible studio theatre seating 300-400 people, depending on configuration. These facilities are complimented by dance studios, a rehearsal space, a large foyer that can be used for street performances, and other ancillary spaces.
