PERFORMANCES MAGAZINE P13 Backstage at the Globe FROM AUDITORIUM TO ARENA STAGE Building an Interim Theatre Space

A new electrical system was installed to support theatrical light- ing. A truss grid (a lighting grid supported by a kind of canopy on legs) was built around the theatre to support lighting equipment. The entire lighting system from the former Cassius Carter Centre Stage theatre was moved into the new space. Tofit the new theatre into the space,some changes from the lay- out of the Carter were necessary. Instead of entering from the top of the theatre,patrons now enter at floor level. ADA-compliant seat- ing for wheelchairs and patrons with limited mobility is also located at floor level. Seats are conference-style chairs, with wider seats than many of the seats in the Carter for increased comfort. In building this space,we had one goal: to provide you with un- interrupted enjoyment of our intimate productions. We are so During construction of the new Conrad Prebys Theatre Center, pleased to be able to do so in a familiar,convenient location here in The Old Globe has built a temporary arena stage in the James S. Balboa Park. Copley Auditorium at the San Diego Museum of Art. We are very grateful to the Museum for making it possible to temporarily house our arena stage productions just steps away from the Globe. Working with the Krenek Design Group,Globe staff developed a design for the new theatre retaining the intimacy you have always enjoyed for our arena stage productions. Anchored into the floor of the auditorium (which will be fully restored when we move out),a “black box” structure was erected, with seating surrounding the stage. One side of the seating goes up onto the old auditorium stage. The remainder of the existing stage is being used for dress- ing rooms.

We’re sure you will enjoy your experience at The Old Globe Arena Stage at the San Diego Museum of Art’s James S. Copley Auditorium (quite a mouthful — for short, we’re calling it “the Copley”). And we’re just as sure you will be thrilled with the new Sheryl and Harvey White Theatre, scheduled to open in early 2010. Like the Carter and the Copley,the White Theatre will be an arena stage retaining all the best aspects of its predecessors,but with new state- of-the-art technical resources and increased audience comfort you’ll be sure to appreciate.
