Support facilities include a box office, a concessions sales room, a lobby, &#8220;green room,&#8221; rehearsal space, storage and outdoor theater capabilities. The new facility is integrated into the park with a green roof providing a natural insulator, resulting in significant energy savings while limiting the impact of stormwater runoff. The facility is fully accessible and designed to meet LEED Certification standards.
