Historic Renovations
IA Stage is a premier provider of products and services for historic renovations. We’re enthusiastic members of the League of Historic American Theatres (LHAT), and we’re all about preservation efforts for these old gems. Why? Theatres hold a special place in the hearts of many people. They are places of magic and invention; places where anything can – and just might – happen. These old buildings are a bridge between the past and present, connecting us to the people who occupied them decades ago. And if you do it right, a restored theatre can inject life and revenue back into the community.

With thoughtful upgrades, historic theatres can certainly compete with newer high-tech performance spaces. Think about it. Restoration expands technical capabilities, which in turn, support programming that meets the expectations of today’s audiences, thus reinvigorating streams of revenue typically associated with entertainment arts venues: ticket sales, concessions, subscriptions, program ads, donations, educational programs, etc.
Restoration and preservation are about more than just butts in seats, though. A forgotten space brought back to its former glory offers an intimacy many modern facilities can’t touch.
