Stage/floor plans of a theatre

[Chris_H]

Hi, I was wondering if anyone could help me with this.

I'm just starting a college project which involves researching, designing and making a set model to scale, I've written to my local theatres for any help/plans they could offer, but I've had no replies. So, is there anywhere I could get scale plans for theatres for cheap/nothing (low budget)?

 

thanks for the help

White Lights LX Store sell scale plans of theatres, online, but they're not particularly cheap. A bit of googling can turn up some theatres with plans in AutoCAD format.

C venues have some PDFs online that you can download - not certain about the copyright on them, but I *think* that you only have to give them credit for the original plans.

There's also a 3D studio MAX 5.0 model here, which you are welcome to use so long as you give me credit!

Where there any venues in particular you wanted the groundplans for?

Technical/Stage/Production Managers are often very busy. You could always try turning up at a venue at a time that shouldn't be too busy for them and simply asking for a plan. Letters can be ignored, polite callers can't!
