The expansion and renovation of historic Powell Hall presses onward. As the backstage expansion begins to take shape, the construction team started excavation for the new entry hall and guest services building. Once complete, the expanded entry will transform the visitor experience, providing much needed space for gathering, plus expanded amenities, including more restrooms, additional bars and concession areas, a coat check, and additional elevators.

The SLSO is preserving the building’s current foyer, keeping the stunning architecture and details that have made Powell Hall a civic icon.
