Description

We trace the rebirth of a historic downtown theater into Wareham Hall, a flexible, high-tech home for performance, learning, and community. Blade Mages lays out the $40M plan, the acoustic and rigging innovations, and how donors and partners make the vision real.

• renaming the opera house to a community hall
• origins of the project and early ambitions
• fundraising strategy and historic tax credits
• cost drivers, square footage, and value
• fully motorized rigging and show control
• adjustable room acoustics for amplified and acoustic shows
• object-oriented mixing and spatial sound
• construction timeline and the marquee coming down
• nonprofit governance and broad donor base
• limited public funds and streetscape changes
• community impact and vision for 2027

Follow us online, Facebook or Instagram. We will be putting updates up just about every day
Wearhamhall.org has a lot of detailed information where you can find out more about that effort
