To create the most dynamic performance spaces for live theatre, music, and dance, Theatre Projects believes that their staff-from theatre designers to the accounting manager-needs to be fully engaged with what's happening in the arts today. Although their team spends hundreds of hours each week designing those spaces-meeting with users, planning and sketching, looking at drawings, reviewing construction progress, and testing equipment-they still find it important to connect with the art that inhabits those spaces and not just the buildings they design. Theatre Projects believes that extraordinary performance spaces aren't just a product of their design philosophy, they're a result of understanding what's currently happening in the arts and translating that into their work every single day. That has been their approach for almost 60 years, and it continues today.
