Agreement on the use of the Salle Modulable

According to a statement from the Lucerne Theatre Foundation Board, the solutions "enable productions of various sizes, while still meeting the requirements of the Butterfield Trust and can be realized within the existing investment framework".

In addition to the expanded spatial program, the cultural partners now also favor an operating model that does justice to the processes of the producing theater and the interests of all users. The cornerstones of the consensus solution are

• New, smaller auditorium configurations allow both innovative and traditional productions to be staged under realistic conditions all year round. Stage size, orchestra pit and space can be optimized for small and large productions ranging from baroque to romantic opera and contemporary works. This makes the use of the large hall interesting for the independent scene as well.
   
• Either direct solutions were found for the previously missing usable areas or they were included in the official space program for the architectural competition.
   
• The operating model developed is suitable for the processes of a producing theater company and also takes into account the coordination between the future users. Artistically, the theatre will be significantly shaped by an artistic director who is not above the artistic directors of the other user organizations, but is committed to the Theater Werk Luzern TWL vision. The artistic directors work together as partners. A third management level is no longer favored.
