The building is expecting to be completed sometime this summer and will give HART a second main stage performance space. The flagship main stage theater is 11,000 square feet with 250 seats. The second venue is planned to be 6,000 square feet, which would hold between 150 to 180 attendees, depending on what’s being presented. 

The possibilities range from small plays to dinner theater, drama camps to acting classes, cabaret to wedding receptions. It seems the avenues of potential are endless. Perhaps most importantly, the second theater will allow productions to run back to back. Actors and set crews will have a place to prepare one show while another is running on the main stage.

The project has an estimated construction price tag of $1.2 million, with most of that cost already being gathering through an ongoing fundraising campaign by HART.
