Background
New in 2003, the $10.4 million Performing Arts
Center is the culmination of joint efforts by the University and the
Brookings Community. A 62,000 square foot building has a 5,000
square foot glass enclosed lobby ensconcing the west side of the
facility. A long staircase sends patrons to balcony seating in the
1,000 seat Concert Hall, to the faculty offices or to the theatre’s
“smart” classroom. The facility is also home to a 200 seat Studio
Theatre. In the theatre, seating is all on the floor level at the
same plane as the stage. The seats are retractable so performances
can be done in the round or with the audience on three sides as well
as in the traditional stage format.
