Abstract
Originally opened in 1928 as the Capitol Theatre, the Oscar Mayer Theatre in Madison, WI underwent substantial renovation in 1980 to support its current performance program. The theatre is now home to the Madison Symphony and the Madison Opera, and is used for ballet, touring shows, and popular concerts as well. As part of the ongoing Overture Project which will transform the theatre’s home, the Madison Civic Center, into the Overture Center, the Oscar Mayer Theatre will be further improved to support its new role. In this paper we will discuss the reasoning behind the upcoming renovation within the context of the Overture Project, we will describe the pending architectural modifications to the theatre, and we will discuss the intended changes in acoustics. Computer modeling results will also be presented for the existing and renovated conditions.
