STAR PERFORMANCE AT UNICORN THEATRE FOR CHILDREN
IAC
has provided attenuators to suppress plant room noise at the new £13m
Unicorn Theatre for Children in Southwark near London Bridge.
IAC’s attenuators were fitted to the ventilation
system fans in 40 rooms throughout the theatre complex, and were used
to achieve a demanding NR20 in the main auditiorium. Design and build
contractor RTT Engineering Services of Wallington brought us in for the
proven performance of our sound attentuation products. RTT took just 8
months to complete the entire project.
The striking copper-clad building was designed by architect
Keith Williams and contains two theatre spaces. The main Weston theatre
has been nicknamed the Theatre in the Sky as it ‘balances’
above the foyer in a daring and exciting design.
The Unicorn is the UK’s first children’s theatre
and it will play to over 100,000 children each year. It was opened by
Lord Attenborough amid an international fanfare on 1 December 2005.
