Pafos Markideion Theatre - The Acoustic Shell

29/3/2018

Background
During the initial planning of the Pafos Markideion Theatre it was always the intention to have an Acoustic Shell for deployment on stage. This was to comprise of a back wall with tapered side stage walls and an inclined ceiling sloping down towards the back wall. The layouts of these elements were to generally follow on from the lines set out in the acoustic treatment of the auditorium.

Due to budget constraints the Acoustic Shell was deleted from the initial capital project, to be looked at as additional equipment at a later stage. It was acknowledged that it would be unlikely that there would ever be sufficient funding to incorporate any form of motorisation, with the associated safety elements, for a flown ceiling and that any form of suspension would have to be manually operated; probably incorporated into the existing counterweight flying system.
As Multistage were already supplying and installing the counterweight flying system an amount of preliminary design work on the acoustic shell was carried out following the guidelines set out by the Architect and the Acoustic Consultant.
