A new 80 x 40 footstage at the Toyota Center in Kennewick will provide a closer and more cozy theatre experience for viewers. In addition to the stage improvements, the acoustics have been updated and new curtains added.
The new seating will accomodate 2,100 ticket holders and allow for better visual and hearing opportunities than in the paast. The intent of the updating is to lure higher end performances to come to the Tri-Cities, thus building on stronger showings of performing arts in the area, and support the talent at WSU Tri-Cities in Richland and Columbia Basin College in Pasco.
