SERAPID LINKLIFTS PROVIDE FLEXIBLE THEATER CONFIGURATIONS
FOR VENUES AT THE AT&T PERFORMING ARTS CENTER
SERAPID LinkLift telescopic lift columns provide quick, flexible
configurations for a variety of performances at several venues in
the AT&T Performing Arts Centre in Dallas. The Margot and Bill
Winspear Opera House is home of The Dallas Opera and Texas Ballet
Theatre and The Dee and Charles Wyly Theatre is home of the Dallas
Theatre Centre and Dallas Black Dance Theatre as well as a number
of other performing arts organizations in the Dallas area.
At the Charles Wyly Theatre, the lift columns are incorporated into
this truly unique performance space to allow directors to change
the configuration of the all-glass, vertically stacked building
at the push of a button.
SERAPID's scope of supply for the 575 seat Potter Rose Theatre inside
the Charles Wyly Theatre includes 46 LinkLift lifting columns to
support the proscenium lift, seating wagon lift, six seat configuration
lifts, six turntables, and 12 seating riser lifts.
Additionally SERAPID provided two push/pull systems for the 'superfly'
tower, which services the stage level. These systems enable the
seating to be lifted or lowered from storage facilities. The Rigid
Chain telescopic actuators push/pull these systems in/out of position
to be lifted/lowered. One system weighs approximately 54,430 kilograms,
and the other weighs 27,215 kilograms. The 'superfly' tower is a
key component to the rapid reconfiguration of performance areas.
The LinkLift columns at the Winspear Opera House facilitate a quick
switch between opera and musical theatre to dance performances.
The lifts in both venues are comprised of SERAPID
LinkLift columns, which feature square links that work like building
blocks to form a tower stack. The shape and locking technique make
it capable of extra-high rigidity and strength.
SERAPID is a leader in stage, orchestra and piano lifts. Their Rigid
Chain Lift Columns are installed in theatres, show venues and concert
halls all over the world.
