Book Description,
An aspect of the quality of urban and rural life is the provision of places where people can gather in formal and informal settings. Buildings for the performing arts, at the different scales from metropolitan to local, contribute to a pattern of provision with places for people to gather and appreciate performances of music, dance, drama and so on.
This Design and Development Guide is concerned with the realization and design of the different building types covering facilities for a range of performing arts.

Buildings for the performing arts, at the different scales from metropolitan to local, contribute to a pattern of provision with places for people to gather and appreciate performances of music, dance, drama and so on. This Design and Development Guide is concerned with the realization and design of the different building types covering facilities for a range of performing arts. A building for the performing arts is designed and developed at a period within the evolution of the particular art form and technological advancement. There is a wide and expanding set of building types as a consequence of an increasing number of performers wishing to perform. The client, as the usual initiator of a project, should not become locked into a solution by immediate reference to a particular building type such as a concert hall, as a detailed examination of the local conditions may suggest another type. In this respect this guide places an emphasis on feasibility: that is, for the client, with appropriate advice, to evaluate demand, resources and support to ensure viability before progressing with the project.
