Historic Theatre
Enhancing the Patron Experience
Like their modern counterparts, historic theaters seek flexibility to make it possible for applications, such as workshops, classes, and events capable of bringing in new revenue streams.
The goal of today’s renovations is to make better use of available space while maintaining the integrity of the original design. If you’re looking to update a historic space, Irwin has contributed to 33 of Broadway’s 35 theaters. We have a passion for historic areas.
Look to our experienced teams to help create an authentic experience, complete with the following:
- Customizable: replacement seats use fabrics, finishes, materials, and stains to complement your space
- Seating that offers flat or raised sightlines based on the space
- Durable options that are easy to clean, move, and store
- Guidance on proper cleaning solutions and maintenance procedures

What your guests are able to see when they sit down to enjoy a show is among the most critical concerns when designing a space. Good sight lines are a must. Guest seating must also be safe and easy to get in and out without disturbing the performance. Considering these basic guest considerations before starting can lead to a better-designed theater for a more enjoyable viewer experience.
