We also have fine art objects on consignment, Brown said. We are continually expanding our inventory. A sculpture garden outside the ballroom should be completed this spring. The 365-seat auditorium used by the Glen Allen Players, Henrico Theater Company and various professional theater companies including Theatre IV, is the engine that powers the center. There's even a closed-circuit television system behind the stage so actors won't miss a cue.
Theater fits nicely into the center s varied programming.
We are very family-oriented and believe in the education of children as well as adults. We feel the best way to learn is to be entertained while you are learning. Our rehearsal room for theater or dance is open to the public, for example. They can watch rehearsals take place. We also have a complete scene shop adjacent to the theater where we build scenery.
