Peter Hall Performing Arts Centre wins RIBA Regional Award 10.05.19

The Peter Hall Performing Arts Centre has won a Regional Award from RIBA East. The new centre, built for The Perse School in Cambridge, was named after National Theatre director Peter Hall who was a pupil in the 1940s. Housing a 400 seat auditorium, rehearsal and teaching rooms, an exhibition space, classrooms and full back of house, the Performing Arts Centre operates as a café for pupils and staff during the school day, and as a foyer for audiences during events in the auditorium. The RIBA National Awards are announced in June.
