When the new Glasshouse Theatre opens its doors at Queensland Performing Arts Centre in March, almost two years will have elapsed from its originally scheduled opening. The Covid pandemic and floods across Brisbane’s Southbank triggered substantial delays.
The deep green of the auditorium has matching, comfortable seating and a single balcony. It also features a fully automated orchestra pit with reflective and absorbent acoustic panels. The stage has a fully electric 100-line flying system, one of only a few in the country.
