Description:

With the addition of the 43,000 square foot Performing Arts Center, consisting of a state-of-the art 1,000 seat auditorium and dance studios that complement the previously constructed music and drama facilities, Frenship High School now provides its students, faculty and community a true “all inclusive” facility for the arts.

 

The auditorium includes a large open two-level lobby, providing direct access to the music, dance and drama departments, along with ticketing, restrooms, and kitchen servery.  Optimum sight-line viewing is accomplished in the auditorium utilizing bowl-type seating at the front of the house and tiered seating in the rear.  A state-of-the-art sound control booth with adjoining enclosed lighting/video control room is located at the rear of the house.

 

The stage includes motorized rigging within a full-height fly loft.  A large scene shop provides direct access to the stage while accommodating productions ranging from student performances to touring productions.   Three dance studios include dressing rooms and storage areas along with instructors’ offices.
