Performing Arts Centre
The Hammond School, Chester
Due on site in the autumn of 2006, this £2.6m new Performing Arts Building will provide a much needed facility for one of the North-Westís leading dance and drama schools.
The new building will contain a number of dance and drama studios, two of which convert into a theatre which can seat an audience of over 300. Other facilities include a new dining area for the school, changing areas and offices.
The external appearance of the building is designed to blend in with the adjacent main school buildings.
The building will be built in two phases, with the Music School Wing starting on site shortly after the completion of Phase 1.
