The Philip Chosky Theater - Purnell Center For the Arts at CMU

The Carnegie Mellon University School of Drama is the oldest conservatory training, and the first degree-granting drama institution, in the United States of America. Founded in 1914, the school combines established practice with innovation, pedagogical and technological advancement across all disciplines.

The Philip Chosky Theater was donated by Philip Chosky. It is the largest theater space at the School of Drama and seats up to 450 people. It is a classic proscenium arch theater, and has a flexible proscenium which can be also arranged into a thrust configuration. It is equipped with counter weight fly and hemp fly systems, 24’x18′ trap door section, and a tension grid for front of house lighting. The apron is on an elevator system so that it can be used as a stage apron, orchestra pit, or additional seating area.
