A Stage for Success
The New Facilities
A bold design has been developed to transform the College’s
existing site and deliver:
- A 450 capacity world-class Concert Hall for rehearsals, public
recitals and master-classes.
- A 160 seat state-of-the-art Theatre with a dress circle and
teaching gallery.
- An Exhibition Arcade to display our award-winning theatre and
costume designs.
- Four new full-sized, double height Acting and Movement Studios
with the same 'footprint' as the Theatre.
- A new ‘Front Door’ to the College opening onto a central Foyer
and performance spaces.
- A new Café Bar and Terrace overlooking historic Bute Park.
- A renovated and upgraded Bute Theatre (capacity 150-200)
doubling as a television studio.
This landmark development will mark a new gateway to Cardiff
City from the north. It will provide first-class facilities for the
College, attracting new audiences to both our students’
performances and the regular masterclasses given by international
artists, as well as increasing opportunities for local performing
arts organisations to promote their work.
