Playwrights Theater Downtown Renovation
A stylish refresh for an established theater company's latest downtown location.
This project is phase 1 of a renovation of Playwrights Horizons’ downtown rehearsal studio space. Each space has been upgraded with finishes and lighting in addition to substantial mechanical and acoustical work, including acoustical floor details. The updated mechanical system required units on the roof and steel supports spanning between existing dunnage. Marvel has worked with Playwrights Horizons since 2014 on various phases of planning, development, and renovation.
All spaces have updated finishes and fixtures, including new restrooms.

The third floor layout was reconfigured to allow additional egress, and acoustical isolation between all rehearsal rooms.

"The design transforms the space using light, texture, and mass. A soffit wraps the rehearsal room corridors, guiding people with directional light and culminating in a Turrell-inspired ceiling in the main lobby."
Debbie Balters, Architect at Marvel

All spaces have updated finishes and fixtures, including new restrooms.


Future phases are planned for the renovation of the theater spaces within the facility.
