Stage Dimensions: 

 

This theatre has a cross-shaped stage, the main stage being 25.6 x 21.5 metres in size. The side stages, OP, prompt and backstage are each almost the same size as the main stage. Five stage lifts, each 3
x 15 metres in size, as well as a revolving stage with an inner platform form part of these stages. Lighting, sound and stage mechanics are controlled by computer and the theatre has a lighting saturation grid
and follow spots.
Apart from being a safety precaution, the lowered fire curtains allow normal backstage activities to proceed without causing any disturbance to the performers or the audience during a production. Stretching to a height of 33 metres, the stage operating, or fly, tower is one of highest
in the world, equipped with three working galleries and 57 battens from which cloths and décor can be suspended.
