Rattlebrain Theater Company is a completely unique improvisation theatre in the basement of the historic D&F Tower. The design criteria required that the space evoke emotions juxtaposed to the historic lobby upstairs.

Architectural Workshop's solution was to create an industrial space that combined raw finishes and recycled props with abstract shapes and lighting to establish an exhilarating environment. The theatre has a 160 seat capacity with three flexible stage configurations. The space can change the atmosphere instantly with lights and movable props to enhance the experience.

The results have been well received. Check out comments from the Rattlebrain team!

• Flexible space configuration allows for multi-use function with limited square footage
   
• Lighting design and unique materials create a dramatic effect
   
• Use of recycled props as building materials to create interior finishes provided significant cost savings for the owner
