Each year the United States Institute for Theatre Technology (USITT) recognizes the best contemporary new or renovated theatres. A juried process is used to determine the winners, who receive either Honor Awards or Merit Awards. Past award winners have come from England, Germany, Japan, California, New York, and all points between. Opsis is proud to announce that Reed College’s Performing Arts Building is the recipient of the 2015 Architecture Merit Award!
We are honored that our project is among such good company. Other winners are the National Theatre of Bahrain in Paris, France as well as Milton Court—the new performing arts building at the Guildhall School of Music in London, UK. The USITT’s Architecture Commission will present the awards at its 2015 National Conference & Stage Expo March 18-21 in Cincinnati, Ohio.
