Theatre is not primarily about practical problems. First and foremost theatres must support the spiritual and emotional interaction between performer and audience. Resolving the practical problems is only the beginning, the hard bit and the most exciting bit is making the space work for the artist; amplifying the creative energy, helping make the live performance unique.
The operational, funding and legislative environment in which arts buildings are commissioned and operated is significantly different from any other building type. The success of these projects requires specialist knowledge. The people at place have 25 years experience in this sector. We have hands on experience of designing, building and running arts buildings and can offer a unique insight into the clients problems and provide practical and innovative solutions as well as exciting venues.
