An Encore Special Event
"Take Your Seats"
This is a unique opportunity for individuals, families and organizations to sponsor one of the specially selected seats in our restored and refurbished Opera House.
On each seat sold we will affix a name plaque in recognition of your sponsorship.
The restored and refurbished theatre will seat 498 people. The dress circle seating arrangement will not alter, but stalls seating has been reduced, eliminating the three very back rows and all seating at present with an obstructed or unclear view of the stage. We have carefully chosen these 303 seats for sponsorship, from both dress circle and stalls areas, then placed them in the appropriate categories listed below.
