Q&A

Wilson asks when renovations will begin and how they will affect programming. Christopher Knave says construction is planned for 2028 and about two years, and that Roundabout will plan its five theaters carefully to avoid reducing offerings to students and audiences.

Carl Wilson

And then when will renovations begin?

Carl Wilson

And when they begin, how is that going to affect the programming at Roundabout and Studio 54?

Christopher Nave

So right now the plan is for construction to begin in 2028 and last approximately two years.

Christopher Nave

Thankfully, Roundabout operates five theaters within the theater sub-district.

Christopher Nave

And so it's sort of a careful chess game of what goes into production and what comes offline.

Christopher Nave

And we're currently in the process of planning that season.

Christopher Nave

But our intention is not to reduce our offerings at all to the students and audiences we serve.

Carl Wilson

Great.

Carl Wilson

Thank you, Chair.

Carl Wilson

That's all for me.

Council Staff

Thank you, Council.
