Waterman Theatre Tech Packet
GENERAL INFORMATION
• Built in 1968, with a renovation completed in Fall 2016, the Charlotte Waterman Theatre is located in Tyler Hall, and consists of a proscenium stage with seating for 400-425. • A Serapid Orchestra Pit lift provides a curved forestage extending 14' from plaster line at stage center. • Stage deck is 2'- 6" above the floor of the first row of seats. • A crossover hallway behind the stage is accessible via doors upstage left and right. • A Fire Curtain is installed 5 ½” upstage of the plaster line which will automatically lower if the smoke detectors installed in the theatre are tripped. It takes approximately 60 seconds to raise and lower, but cannot be raised until the system is clear of smoke.

There is a fully trapped 36' x 30' area, consisting of sixty 3' x 6' traps centered on the stage. The traps are coffin locked together, and each have four legs, which sit securely in a channel on steel I-beams. They are framed with aluminum, and topped with 1” Marine Grade Plywood, and 1/4" Masonite.
A black marley dance floor 40' wide by 30' deep is available for rental from the Theatre Department.
ORCHESTRA PIT LIFT
Accommodates approximately 20 musicians. Operated from Stage Left or in the Pit with 5 preset stopping positions: • Level 5: at stage level • Level 4: 2’ 6” below stage level (house level) • Level 3: 5’ 0” below stage level • Level 2: 8’ 4” below stage level (pit entrance level) • Level 1: 8' 11" below stage level (trap level) The pit automatically stops at each level when moving, but can be stopped and safely used at any height. It takes approximately 30 seconds to travel from level 5 to 4, 30 seconds from level 4 to 3, 45 seconds from level 3 to 2, and 10 seconds from level 2 to 1.
Please note that the Pit Lift is for equipment only. Under no circumstance will people be allowed to remain on the pit while it is moving.
LOADING IN/OUT
Access to the stage is via an enclosed underground loading dock (12’6” clearance) capable of accommodating tractor-trailers. The entrance to the stage is approximately 200’ down a straight hallway which has a slight slope down to stage level. There are three sets of 5’10” wide x 9’6” tall doors.
Since this loading dock is shared with another building, vehicles may not stay at the loading dock. A temporary parking permit must be obtained by your sponsoring organization in order to park on campus.
