About
The Cessnock Community Performing Arts Centre (CPAC) opened in November 2008. The theatre seats 466 people and sits neatly between and within two historically significant buildings and has been designed using contemporary materials and finishes that subtly contrast with the patina of the older buildings.
The stage is a Proscenium Arch ( 5000mm high x 8000mm wide ) non fly tower venue. The rigging system is a combination of dead hung masking, a traveller main curtain, mid stage flat black traveller, upstage flat black traveller and a white cyc.
The Theatre is equipped to cover professional staging needs. This includes a Meyer sound system, Strand lighting controls, 132 dimmers and Selecon lighting instruments. There is a small Orchestra pit which if required must have the Thrust Stage pieces removed. Stairs both Prompt and OPrompt provide access from the Stage to the Auditorium.
