St. Anne’s-Belfield Upper School Theater

Thursday, June 23rd, 2016

The new theater for St. Anne’s-Belfield School’s Upper School will replace an aging, undersized facility that was created from a gymnasium.

  • The room has a seating capacity of 460 on two levels – large enough for the entire Upper School and faculty.
  • The room has the ability to darken the balcony and back sections for smaller audience sizes.
  • The seating is shaped in a “half moon” configuration with a thrust stage to emphasize the visual connections of students in the audience with each other and with the speaker on the stage.
  • The space is designed to create an intimate experience that reinforces a sense of community and belonging.

Georgetown Day School

BGA designed and completed a major expansion, providing additions and renovations to the existing school as well as a new underground athletic center and parking structure. The three-story addition creates a new main entrance tied to a multi-level meeting space and student/faculty living room for the school. The Project was completed with an aggressive, continuous multi-phased construction schedule, which did not disrupt the ongoing school operations.
