SEATING CAPACITY: 571 Total ( Orchestra Level: 430, Balcony: 141)

STAGE DIMENSIONS: .
Proscenium: 34'- 4" wide by 21' - 0" high.
Stage is 29' deep by 40' wide, basically. At mid-stage, stage right has a bit more wing space, due to angled walls.
The upstage 8'- 6" is only 27' wide due to the Stage Right spiral stairway that provides the crossover down thru the Green room. The spiral stairway is hidden by an up & downstage, dead hung, 7' deep black velour leg and a matching up & downstage leg is on Stage Left.

STAGE CURTAINS:

• At 1'- 9" upstage is the main, dark teal velour curtain. The maximum opening is 31'- 6".
• At 6' - 6" upstage are two 6' black velour legs.
• At 7'- 0" upstage is a full stage, bi-parting, black shark's tooth scrim, which also masks the roll-down cinema screen behind it.
• At 12'- 6" are two 6' black velour legs on swivel mounts.
• At 15'- 6" upstage are two 6' black velour legs.
• At 20' - 6" upstage is a full stage, bi-parting, black velour traveler.
• At 29' upstage is a hard cyc. It is a Level 5 finished drywall, painted flat white.
• For the first 20' - 6" of depth, the legs currently provide a 25' -6" wide stage, with 7' to 9' of wing space on Stage Right and 7' wing space on Stage Left.

If a 32' wide stage is needed, then the wings will be reduced to 4' wide per side. To accommodate this, four legs are hung on tracks and two are dead hung with swivel capacity, allowing flexibility for different productions.

POWER:
In addition to the permanent dimming system, there is a 200 amp Company Switch stage right, a 100 amp -isolated ground Company Switch for Audio stage left and a 200 amp -isolated ground Company Switch for Remote trucks, accessible trom the parking lot.

LOAD-IN:
Load-in is at street level, off stage left. Trucks/vans (not buses or semi trucks) pull or back into the parking lot off Calder Alley, next to the stage door. The parking lot is sloped, so watch for low bumpers and lift gate trames.
There is a 4' - 6" x 10'- 0" scissor lift (capacity 3,000 pounds) at the front of the stage to raise gear up to stage level.
