The Belfast Central High School performing arts group was formally using a small area in a multi-purpose space for their stage. As top-notch thespians, these students needed an inspiring auditorium to help them better reach peak performance.

As part of a 2018 Capital Improvements Project (CIP), the multi-purpose room was converted into a polished performance venue complete with a large, professional stage, modernized lighting, advanced acoustics, and all supporting amenities. The new space also contains nimble solutions like a retractable house seating system to promote extreme flexibility.
