The extended new theater comprises of 3 interconnected stage spaces and joins directly to the lobby of the existing theater and its service areas. The yard links the new and existing buildings, creating a flexible and functional complex which is also transparent and cozy. At the centre of the complex, the RING of the canopy serves as focal point, uniting all four stages. Building on the symbolism of the circle, an experimental canopy can be installed each year as a PLUG-IN, expressing the current artistic vision and intent of the puppetry arts centre. <\/ins>Starshade – an unfurling origami canopy, developed for NASA, is shown at the moment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/studiok.bg\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/077-persp-Section-YARD-scaled.jpg\")
