How can you spend $5 million and not significantly change how the auditorium looks presently or how many people it holds?
Careful cost analysis guided our decision to keep the auditorium at its present size and location. Building a new larger auditorium would have pushed the budget higher than the $5 million goal. The present auditorium has some very positive key elements such as: Considerable seating capacity Ample wing space Flexible orchestra pit usage Updated sound system Electrical systems for stage lighting. Renovated auditorium space will include: New entry vestibules to the auditorium that will separate the concert space from the main hallway New flexible seating configuration that will allow for more seating including a 100 seat mezzanine.
