In designing a theater, an architect must design a hub for the activities of actors, dancers, and musicians of every genre, and appease directors, producers, and the all-important public. This successful title has proved its practicality as a guide to building the modern theater, concert hall and cultural center designed for academic, civic and private use. Now in its first reprint edition, it has also been published in Chinese, and has proved a valuable resource for both architects and commissioning agents. The expertise of Hardy Holzman and Pfeiffer Associates (HHPA) is demonstrated time and again throughout this book, with color photography, and essays by performers, curators, artistic directors, actors, lighting designers, academic musicians, playwrights, and dancers amongst others. This book showcases their work through new buildings, old theater renovations and older building refitted as theaters.
