The application of performance technology permits flexibility at Carnegie Hall’s newest performance space. Multiple stage and seating configurations allow for seating up to 644. The computer controlled theatrical systems, form a flexible infrastructure that supports the hall’s broad programming mission. The architectural lighting design in the lobbies and audience chamber is controlled by a programmable centralized dimming system. Lighting in the audience chamber may be linked to the theatrical lighting system or operated independently.
