The theater lobby contains a large amount of glass that will give the lobby an open and airy feel. The theater lobby connects to a large new student commons area between the existing school and the new theater. This area will give students a place to assemble before school to keep them out of the elements. It will also serve as a new collaborative learning space during the day and connect with the theater to create a large learning center.
