A theatre in which I design is getting a brand new facility. The main stage is a 45 x 45 black box (which will seem giant compared to what they have now!). I'm doing some consulting and trying to push things to be flexible, modular and production-oriented.
I am proposing that the slab be lowered approx 12" to allow a modular platforming system to become the stage (and house) floor. That way we could pull out sections to install a turntable, shallow trap (for props maybe) or lighting trough or whatever. I'd also like to be able to cut grooves for tracking scenery.
Any thoughts on the proposed design (see attached)? And brilliant ideas I'm missing?
