Stage Set for Renovations to WAB's Blu Theater

The stage is set for a dramatic transformation of one of WAB’s most precious and dynamic learning spaces: Blu Theater.

Renovations are underway for Blu Theater. Set to be completed in time for the start of the 2019-2020 school year, several upgrades will bring the theater to new heights for our students, audience members, and crew.

Every year, the Blu Theater hosts a number of theatrical productions, dance showcases, and concerts. In line with WAB’s world-class education and the upgrade of several of our learning spaces, changes coming to the Blu Theater are set to further improve our students’ ability to produce and perform professional-level productions and enhance the audience experience.

The stage space is being expanded to increase the versatility of the shows which can be hosted in the theater. New state-of-the-art sound and lighting equipment, as well as an improved acoustic design will add dynamic color and new elements of sound to productions. This new equipment will also offer students a chance to learn on the highest industry standards of equipment. For the audience, improved sight lines and new seats will make for an incredible experience.

Once again, we’d like to thank everyone in the WAB community who contributed to the new Blu Theater project through donations and contributions to the 2018 WAB Gala Shanghai Swing. We are excited to invite you into the space for more of WAB students’ amazing productions in the years to come.
