4.8.4 Control and Sound Room

Planning Rationale

The Sound and Control Room houses the controls for light and sound for the theater space. While there might occasionally be a small class assembled here, most of the time there will be 2 to 4 operators.

Option 1 (Preferred): Provide a Control and Sound Room at the back of the theater space at a level above the stage. This room serves as lighting control, sound control, and the follow spot room for the theater space. This space shall be accessible from the second floor or higher of the school and have direct access to the catwalks.

Option 2: Provide a Control and Sound Room off the stage behind the proscenium for theater spaces that do not have access to an upper level. This room serves as the lighting control and sound control room for the theater space. The follow spot for the theater space will be mobile and located in the seating area. This space shall be accessible from the stage.
