Pilot Survey of Performing Arts Facilities in Pennsylvania records, 1970-1972.

The survey report, which was a pilot project designed to provide necessary information for both trouping personnel (stage managers, electricians, booking agents, and route planners) and for architects and consultants concerned with theatre building, is split into two parts. The summary information, which is in the first folder of the first box, describes the methods and procedures involved in creating the survey. There are also recommendations on the future use and expansion of the survey. The second part of the report contains detailed information on each of the thirty-two venues that were surveyed. Each venue's survey is over twenty pages long and contains capacity numbers, stage dimensions, information on lighting and sound equipment, etc. These surveys make up the bulk of the materials in the collection.
