Description
Klar and Klar Architects & Interior Designers worked closely with Ruth Eckerd Hall Staff and Creative Contractors in creating a newly expanded and updated look for the existing smaller educational theatre. The architectural and interior design concept was to create a raw backstage theatrical look, complete with broadway style lighting, wild graffiti walls, and vibrant colors, all to compliment youthful performances. The larger lobby incorporates now a new permanent bar and a comfortable lobby with lounge seating.
