The exterior is clad in upright aluminum tubes and the lobby is a simple space of concrete and glass.
The charles wyly theatre is a 575 seat multi form theater with the ability to transform between proscenium thrust arena traverse studio and flat floor configurations with only a small crew in a few hours.
The dee and charles wyly theatre overcomes these challenges by overturning conventional theater design.

And flat floor freeing directors and scenic designers to choose the stage audience.
