The theater is a 60 foot square room that contains flexible seating units, making it possible to create any number of conventional theatre configurations, from arena to thrust to alley to frontal, and allowing for seating capacities up to 350 seats. Directors and actors enjoy the intimacy of the Lab Theater, and designers enjoy the ability to design an entire performance environment for a play. The computerized lighting and sound systems allow for added flexibility.
A fully outfitted scene shop serves both the Gezon Auditorium and Lab Theater and contains all of the necessary woodworking and metalworking tools for the production of sets and props. The shop allows for scenery to be built and painted in large sections or on castors and moved easily into and out of the theaters through large, sound-deadening doors.
Location: The Lab Theater is located one level below the Gezon Auditorium lobby (see directions above). Take the open stairway down from the Gezon lobby and pass straight through to the Lab Theater lobby. The theatre entrance will be on your right.
