  • 1992 Winter Vol 2 Issue 1
    Drama Professor Accepts Challenge, Converts Classroom into Theater Dedication, creativity and a lot of spare time led PSU Drama Professor Barry Bengtsen to turn a dilemma into an opportunity that began the evolution of a classroom theater lab into a theater. The dilemma was the amount of excess stage materials and equipment that had accumulated over the years in storage space in Kelce Business School, Horace Mann Building and Grubbs Hall. All of those materials had to be juggled into one place. During the interim between the summer and fall semes­ ters, Bengtsen hauled a good part of the load to the Grubb's theater lab classroom and went to work- alone. He said he donated his services to this project as a personal challenge. "I was reaching a crisis in my chronological age and wondering if at 52 I could still do this and I proved I could," Bengtsen said. He began the evolution by removing five rows of seats from what had been the back of the "class­ room" and turning that space into the entrance and lobby to the "theater." He also set up new sound equipment and a light board to replace the antiquated equipment that has been in use in Grubbs for years. "By providing 21st Century equipment, we are capable of providing the audience with better acoustics, better lighting ... it's safer for everyone, and far more flexible. It makes our job so much easier," Bengtsen said. The new technical equipment occupies so much less space in the sound booth that the excess space has been converted to a handicap accessible booth.
