Performing Arts Design The performing arts play a critical role in developing future-ready skills. That’s why we design environments where every student can find their voice.

Fanning Howey’s thought leaders understand how lighting, acoustics and space combine to create a great performance. However, we take performing arts design a step further. We design for the needs of other academic programs and community groups, as well as the core functions of theater, music and dance.

Our expertise covers every aspect of a modern performing arts curriculum, from the optimal stage proscenium to specialty furniture packages.

We also partner with specialists in acoustics and theaters to bring the best thinking to every project.

Creekside Middle School Performing Arts Center Carmel, IN

A 585-seat auditorium anchors the performing arts complex and provides a dramatic area for school productions, performances, community meetings, and other activities.

Fishers High School Performing Arts Center Fishers, IN

More Shakespeare than Bach, the Fishers High School Performing Arts Center is designed to specifically support theatrical performances.

The creation of this new venue gives the district a matched pair of auditoriums: one dedicated to musical performance and one for theater.

Architects addressed the focus on theatrical performances by creating a warm, intimate venue that seats up to 950. A thrust stage combined with wrap around seating brings the audience closer to the stage, making sure that there is not a bad seat in the house. A walkable tension grid extends over the front of the house, providing a multitude of lighting configurations.

Olentangy Berlin High School Performing Arts Center Lewis Center, OH

The 809-seat auditorium at Olentangy Berlin High School takes a functional and economical approach to supporting school and community events.

Design of the auditorium provides the essential components of a modern performing arts curriculum. Highlights include a full working stage, full stage wings on each side, a full-fly loft, a scene shop, a storage area and a drama classroom that doubles as a greenroom.

The economical design includes a sloped floor, instead of a stepped floor, to reduce costs. Cost savings are also realized by a one-stepdown orchestra area, which keeps orchestra members out of the audience’s view during performances, but without the need for a full orchestra pit.

The Olivet Performing Arts Center acts as the community theatre within Olivet, Michigan. The venue provides residents with an intimate location for a variety of productions, including works by civic theatre groups.

The compact configuration keeps nearly all seats within 60 to 65 feet of the stage, the ideal distance for preserving the visual and aural quality of the performances. Despite the theatre’s compact size, the venue still maintains the volume of space needed to provide the best possible acoustics.

Highlights include an orchestra pit, dressing rooms, an expansive rehearsal room and a beautiful lobby which also acts as an art gallery and substantial spaces for storage.
