Wall Street Theater

Norwalk, Connecticut, USA
Theatre Projects

To provide the Wall Street Theater Company with a facility that could meet the needs of touring rock bands, community groups, stand-up comedians, and even light opera companies, Theatre Projects redesigned an abandoned 102-year-old theatre into a modern, versatile, and robust venue.

The theatre—listed on the National Register of Historic Places—was updated with new side boxes that bring the audience closer to the stage. The old, sloping cinema-style floor was replaced with three flat floor tiers—a design that works for standing audiences or with loose seating. We renovated the stage and added new lifts for greater accessibility and functionality. The stage house received a modern steel grid and the new performance and house lighting systems were installed—composed almost entirely energy-efficient LEDs. The renovation also included updates to the lobby and multipurpose rooms as well as dressing rooms, green room, and new seating.
