Versatility in the Black Box Theatre

Our Black Box Studio Theatre, which had its grand opening in February of this past year with the production of Great Expectations, allocates endless creativity to the entire production team. The seating can be rearranged for each individual production, which provides us with many possibilities in planning for our shows. For Dancing at Lughnasa, we are incorporating a new seating arrangement that we've never used before! This setting is a "traverse" style, which almost looks similar to a tennis court. It allows for fresh perspectives while blocking and developing scenes within the play. Additionally, it provides exciting challenges for working on scenic, lighting, and sound design! Below is a copy of the Ground Plan, designed and created by our Scenic Designer, Jody Sekas. We are so thrilled to see how this new arrangement works in our Black Box Theatre, and we hope you are, too!
