- **Event Description**: The Architecture of Performance
Designing spaces that shape live experience

What is the relationship between architecture and live performance? How do buildings for theatre, music, dance and the alike actively shape production, artistic practice, audience experience, and cultural life? Enter the theatre consultant; a role that sits between architects, engineers, and artists, translating creative needs into architectural decisions.

Through real-world examples, ranging from the smallest venues to purpose-built halls of spectacle, this lecture highlights how collaboration across disciplines is essential to designing successful performance spaces. It examines how spatial proportions, audience–performer relationships, acoustics, circulation, and technical infrastructure influence what can happen on stage — and how it is perceived. It will touch on the historical evolution of performance spaces but emphasise contemporary practice and future challenges.

Finally, the lecture considers Iceland’s specific context — its creative culture, growing need for venues, and the opportunity for architects to contribute meaningfully to cultural infrastructure. It invites students to see theatre architecture not as a niche specialism, but as a powerful lens through which to understand architecture’s social, artistic, and experiential responsibilities.
