AD Scope: Acoustics, Theatre ConsultingSt. Martin's School for Girls is set in beautiful 19th century parkland near Solihull, England. Known for its tradition of providing the very best education from Nursery through Sixth Form, St. Martin's outlook is also to the future. The new construction project is an integral part of a stimulating and supportive environment, providing specialized drama and dance studio facilities. Plans include sharing the facilities with the local community outside school hours.
The drama studio can be used as a flat-floor space or as an end-stage theatre with and offstage space that is nearly 5m tall allowing tall scenic elements to be tucked into a small studio for dramatic effect. The new studio building provides an educational facility with all possibilities and promise of a professional performance facility.
