Exterior study: the bridge theatre in its urban setting
Exterior study: the bridge theatre in its urban setting

A theatre school and three approaches to performance occupy a publicly accessible bridge, linking the city through culture and everyday movement.

The bridge is conceived as a connection, a gateway and a public square. Its entrance hall frames views toward the city and parliamentary district, turning a route across the river into a place to meet, pause and participate.

Three theatre settings explore Brechtian, Boalian and traditional performance alongside a theatre school. A regular structural grid holds these different spaces together; sections and interior perspectives reveal the relationship between passage, gathering and the stage.

Form follows music.
As you move through the space, corridor becomes feminine, you become the masculine.
Invisible light is hidden in d-archness that ego does not seek.
