Chapter 798 Semi-Open-Air Structure

Although the development of the matter was rather magical, Li Hong still reacted quickly and welcomed Qin Jue into the theater.

"Sorry, I didn't expect that only one person would come..." He laughed dryly, wondering how Qin Jue would meet Gao Jiangcheng.

Gao Jiangcheng was even more puzzled. Who would have thought that the guy he met by chance was Qin Jue, who starred in "The Crucible" and happened to come to ISCA to find a venue? There are actually well-known program groups and Qinyi Technology involved!

Is it really lucky today? Is what my daughter said about "Mercury retrograde dissipation" true?

The secret doubts of the two middle-aged men did not affect the progress of the visit. Qin Jue walked around the periphery accompanied by Li Hong.

Lynn Theater is a medium-sized theater with no halls. It can accommodate up to 900 spectators. There is no limit on the number of seats in the open-air part, but Li Hong said that he had tested it and could add up to six rows of seats while ensuring the audition effect, which would add another 300 to 400 people.

Once it is full, it must be spectacular.

From Li Hong, Qin Jue learned that the semi-open-air structure of the Lynn Theater actually originated from a design error a long time ago.

When it was first built, the original intention was to create a complex building with "an enclosed theater inside and a music plaza outside", but due to errors in the drawings, problems also occurred in the construction. The original super-strong soundproof and retractable courtyard wall was insufficient in bearing capacity, the sound effect was not good, and there were great safety hazards.

Li Hong was taken advantage of without knowing it and took over this mess. He simply had a sudden idea and invited a new designer and construction team to completely demolish the outer courtyard wall. At the same time, a spectacular barrier was extended outward from the ceiling, and the semi-open-air theater was built.

Qin Jue had seen a panoramic photo of the Lynn Theater on the Internet. It was streamlined in the side view. From a distance, it looked like a dolphin. The narrow tail was the entrance to the theater, followed by the backstage, the stage, the stage and the auditorium. The deeper you go, the more spacious and high the place is.

"Oh? The pit seats are sloped." Qin Jue was obviously more impressed after visiting this place.

The pit seats are the first floor of the auditorium located on the ground. Because it is located in the inner field, there are few photos searched on the Internet. Before Qin Jue came, he was a little worried that there was no high scattered seats. In this way, if a tall person sat in the front, the audience in the back row might not be able to see the whole stage clearly.

Fortunately, the Lynn Theater did not disappoint her. The pit seats here are similar to those in ordinary theaters and do not affect the visual effect.

Continue to walk forward, at the highest point of the "Dolphin" spine, the theater space is completely vacated, and there is no obstruction in front.

Beyond the pit seats, you can see a semicircular square with steps going up. The steps are very wide, and you can sit directly or place seats. It has a clear ancient Roman style. It is not difficult to guess that the inspiration comes from the Roman open-air theater in Amman.

"So that's it."

After seeing it with his own eyes, Qin Jue knew why the Lynn Theater had to make a composite structure back then.

This is a very opportunistic idea. Generally, theaters have pit seats and balcony seats. Balconies are mostly semicircular, which can be understood as seats above the second floor. Looking at the Lynn Theater, it is obvious that the funds or height are not enough to build additional balconies indoors, so they want to use the existing stepped square.

After Li Hong took over, he also inherited this idea. He surrounded the pit seats with a circle of wooden fences, indicating that this is the "special seats in the venue". Those on the square are naturally open-air seats, which are cheaper.

Qin Jue: "Wait here for a while, I'll go to the farthest point to take a look."

After she said that, she trotted onto the steps on the square, calculating the height while walking up, and then walked along the outermost circle, feeling more and more satisfied.

After a while, Qin Jue ran down and focused on the stage.

At this time, there were already quite a few people on the stage, the main creative team of "Mr. Comedy". Although they had rehearsed very well, they still had to go through a complete rehearsal before the official performance, which was responsible for the quality of the performance.

Because Qin Jue was here for a visit, Li Hong was still hesitating whether to cancel Gao Jiangcheng's daughter's rehearsal temporarily to make room for Qin Jue to check, but Qin Jue said it was okay, so he notified them to go on stage as usual.

Qin Jue chose a seat in the middle of the fourth row and sat down, paying attention to the stage design.

The stage of the Lynn Theater is a classic proscenium stage, with a semicircular stage in front of the curtain, and the area is quite large.

"Mr. Comedy" is a dialogue-based drama, which relies on the actors' own positioning. Qin Jue is not sure if there are other hidden designs on the stage, and he tilts his head from time to time to ask Li Hong.

The not-so-good news is that the stage of the Lynn Theater has no mechanism, and it is impossible to achieve the effect of "the stage is divided into several inner rings according to the center of the circle, and they rotate slowly clockwise and counterclockwise respectively" that is common in musicals.

Qin Jue fell into deep thought.

Li Hong, who was sitting next to her, would occasionally sneak a glance at this "Team Leader Qin". He also knew about "The Crucible", even more than the average audience, but now Qin Jue was not just an actor, she represented the "Entertainment Intern" program team, and the one who reached a cooperation with the program team was Qinyi Technology.

Li Hong definitely didn't want to miss such a good live sign.

Especially when he heard that the Feixun voice message mentioned the Reed Theater, he was even more nervous.

The Lynn Theater is originally located in a remote location, and its semi-open-air design and the square outside are the only features. But when it comes to the value of a visit, it is obvious that the beautifully decorated Theater Mayor is more worthy of tourists to check in and take photos. Many tours of classic plays also choose to rent there, forming a virtuous cycle, which makes the Lynn Theater even worse.

It was obviously built with the idea of ​​"creating a big event" at the beginning of the construction, but in the years since it took over, it is the venue rental orders for the cultural performances of certain universities, primary and secondary schools that have received the most orders, and most of the other revenue comes from the theater. For nearby stalls, Li Hong read reviews on the Lynn Theater on a review app, saying, "It's not that interesting, but the surrounding restaurants are pretty good." He really felt that he couldn't laugh or cry.

Just as he was thinking about it, he heard Qin Jue chuckle.

Looking up again, it turned out that the rehearsal on the stage had come to an end, and the young girl who was the leading role trotted to the outside of the stage to meet her father with a smile on her face.

Gao Jiangcheng handed her the cup of cold drink that he had been holding untouched.

Qin Jue watched the interaction between the father and daughter quietly for a while, then turned around and asked:

"Boss Li, what is the recent program schedule of Lynn Theater?"

Li Hong was afraid that she would not speak and was asked a question and said hurriedly: "It's very relaxing. The tourist season is coming to an end recently. We only have some permanent band performances here except "Mr. Comedy" twice a day. The time is very good. arrange."

He added: "The program team already mentioned it when we contacted them. The show will start on August 20th and run until the 31st, right? It's available. Our theater is completely available."

Qin Jue nodded thoughtfully.

"Well, let me tell you frankly first." She turned to Li Hong and said, "Our musical this time is not a traditional one. There will be many special settings and special effects. In order to achieve the ideal effect of our team , we have to renovate the stage, I wonder if it’s convenient for you.”

"What, renovate the stage?" Li Hong was surprised.

"Yes, and the changes are quite significant."

Qin Jue said as he took out his phone and enlarged one of Qiao Yuansu's design drafts.

Li Hong leaned over to take a look. As he looked, his eyes widened and he let out a scream that he was trying to suppress.
