One of the capital project’s exciting components is the new orchestra lift. Before the lift could be installed, they needed to make room for it first. The crew has now expanded the pit 4 ft. wider and 11 ft. deeper, and the concrete slab and walls have been poured and will soon be waterproofed. The next step will be to backfill around the pit to prepare for the installation of the lift, which will have four positions that, depending on the level, will provide storage for chairs and the Wurlitzer organ, capacity for 35 musicians to perform, additional theater seating, or extension of the stage.
