Performing Arts & Music

Shire Of Denmark

The building has been renovated and upgraded over the years, and now provides a modern and generally adequate facility for live performance and AV/film presentations.
The hall has a maximum allowable seating capacity of 300.
An undulating ceiling and large cork murals along the walls create good but flat acoustics.
There is 3ph / 32A / 60ch patchboard stage left, plus 3 fixed onstage wired lx bars, and two winched, wired FOH bars.
The raked 6.7x5.5m (working area) stage is a suspended timber floor clad with heavy duty replaceable masonite panels, and has a full set of blacks. Tabs are operated manually.
A motorised 3.6mWx3mH video screen is situated above the stage, in front of LX1, with a controller off L.
The retractable 192-capacity tiered seating block is 9.3m from the stage, to permit clearance for emergency exits.
If being closer to your audience is important, hire the 1200x900x1100h ‘bear traps’ stored offstage from the shire; and/or add a 6m x 3.6m x 600h thrust stage available from Denmark Village Theatre: contact [email protected] or 0408 505 515.
A wired projection booth-cum-biobox is accessible only from outside the building.
If you need/prefer to operate from behind the seating block, bring a tower with a floor height of at least 2.4m.
The auditorium has reverse cycle air conditioning operated from the FOH control board. Houselights are controlled from FOH or the biobox, and auditorum blackout from the FOH board only.

Shire Of Denmark is located in the suburb of Denmark, the council of Shire Of Denmark and the federal electorate of O'connor.
