Housed in its own wing of the Janet Wallace Fine Arts Center, one of the Twin Cities' finest performing-arts complexes, the department has two professional-caliber theaters, each designed by noted theater consultant George C. Izenour. Each year more than 250 students perform in the Macalester Theater, the college's Main Stage, which seats an audience of 262 in a unique space with a full-fly 24-line counterweight system, a grid of 60 feet, and the flexibility to convert to proscenium, thrust and arena formats. The Studio Theater, a "black box" that seats up to 100, houses experimental productions. A two-story scene shop, costume shop, dressing rooms, dance studio, rehearsal and storage areas, offices, classrooms, and Green Room complete the theatrical facilities.
