Theatres and Cinemas
Our experience in the theatres and cinemas sector ranges from small to large multi-use complexes.
Many of these projects have included refurbishment, restoration and conservation of Grade I and Grade II listed buildings, which requires a sympathetic approach and a complete understanding of the acoustic performance of the buildings.
The following are examples of projects we have recently completed
