Theatre in Gdańsk
- Emilia Margaretha
Enclosed within a six-metre-high wall, the cultural centre evokes ideas of a medieval castle complex, at the heart of which is a theatre. The complex is rounded off by an 18-metre-high fly tower and a flat, lower tract containing dressing rooms for performers as well as administrative areas. Some 1.2 million hand-formed bricks were required for the facade cladding, and their dark coloration plays an important role in the project, lending the structure its solid appearance. This new cultural institution hosts not just stage perform-ances, but also concerts, exhibitions, conferences and workshops.
