Many schools want to convert an existing space into a theatre or upgrade an outdated drama hall, but retrofitting comes with hidden challenges—from poor acoustics to insufficient infrastructure.
This session will explore when retrofitting makes sense—and when it’s better to start again. Using real-life case studies, we’ll compare the costs, risks, and long-term outcomes of upgrading vs. rebuilding. Attendees will gain a practical framework to assess which option is right for their school—and how to maximise budgets, ensure compliance, and create a theatre that truly works.
This talk is essential for academy leaders, estate managers, and architects looking to transform school performance spaces without making expensive mistakes.
