"As for the theater's space, Kaplan has his eye on a brick building and is talking to the owner. We found a building we absolutely love," he said "It's the old Rialto theater on Franklin Street just north of I-275. It was built in 1926 as a performing arts space. In the '40s, it closed and then was a machine shop, which is what it is now. But the proscenium is still there, the fly house is still there, the balcony is still there. We'd build it with temporary decking and movable seating risers so we could take it from proscenium to thrust to arena on a show-to-show basis, with seating from 400 to 600 at the biggest".
