The Hale Centre was building a new space, and partnered with TAIT to create a technological marvel to elevate the timeless art form of live theatre.

The space features the 900-seat Centre Stage Theatre. We set out to equip the Hale Centre Theatre in Arizona with state-of-the-art technology. The dynamic stage features 11 lifts that can move up and down independently of one another. There’s also a main revolve and a center lift that can rotate in either direction, so that Hale Centre Theatre events are a full-spectrum experience. We custom built an overhead rigging system that allows for dynamic performer flying.

The Hale Centre Theatre shows exciting ways that technology can enhance live action and tell a story. We’re grateful for our partner’s vision and trust, and we were happy to build a space that has to be seen to be believed.
