Crest Theatre Tech Specs
Housed in the restored 1925 Delray High School building, the Crest Theatre was dedicated in 1993 as the performing arts center. Originally the high school auditorium, the Crest Theatre was re-designed as a charming, 323-seat, state-of-the-art facility combining the original high school color (blue) with warm burgundy and gold accents. The original stage was only 12 feet deep; therefore two stories of additional space were added during restoration to provide backstage, dressing room and storage areas. The original proscenium remains an important historic feature of the theatre. The Crest provides a truly intimate entertainment experience. The Main Stage Series (November-April) offers professional theatre, music and dance as well as national tours and unique variety shows. The Broadway Cabaret Series (January-April) features Broadway’s hottest stars. The Lecture Series (January-April) features notable speakers from around the country and a wide variety of topics. The Crest also serves as an important venue for other organizations, schools and community groups to present their own productions, presentations and town meetings. Surrounding the theatre are nine beautifully restored classrooms which now serve as meeting, workshop, reception and art class space.
