At the ground floor is a small stage for one man shows, with a lateral exhibition area. The interior design follows the classical style from the exterior. The big circles from the ceiling are reminiscent of film rolls and are used for space acoustics.
On the first floor is the main stage. The circles on the walls contribute to a good acoustics of space, as well as the ceiling and the back wall of hall which is made from Barrisol and can also illuminate.
The conversion of the building from cinema to theater has put pressure on the acoustics of the space. The project includes calculating echoes and eliminating them through technical solutions. No additional speaker sound is required.
All the solutions found have an aesthetic shape that creates a fresh, colorful atmosphere.
The big hall stage has a system of seats that allows the scene to be transformed into a show.
