The new Performing Arts Center at Rochester Institute of Technology stands as a premier 40,000-square-foot facility designed to anchor the university’s growing music, theater, and dance programs. Our team managed the comprehensive electrical construction for this three-story proscenium theater, which features a 750-seat auditorium complete with two balconies and specialized loading dock access. Beyond the main stage, we outfitted the integrated costume and scene shops with robust electrical systems to support heavy-duty production equipment and student fabrication. Designed by Michael Maltzan Architecture, the building’s complex geometric footprint required our electricians to install precision power distribution and advanced theatrical lighting controls. We are proud to have provided the technical foundation for this landmark venue, which now serves as a vital hub for both the RIT campus and the greater Rochester arts community.
