99 SEAT THEATER ~ PROSCENIUM STAGE ~ RAKED AND FIXED SEATING

The Kraine Theater is one of the most well known downtown venues featuring Off and Off-Off Broadway productions year round.

The raked rows, wide center aisle and high ceilings give The Kraine Theater a sense of spaciousness while the 22” by 16” Proscenium Stage offers an intimate setting.

The upstage wall features two curtained side entrances and three 4'x8' fully rotating panels in the center, allowing for great versatility. The 99 seats are cushioned fold-down theatrical chairs in fixed rows. 

Backstage, there is a full dressing room with lighted mirrors, two bathrooms, direct crossover access, and shared Set and Prop storage.

The lighting system includes a carefully designed reparatory plot which allows a great variety of looks, areas and colors. Five Re-Focusable and Re-Gellable instruments add to its versatility.

This space is equipped with a sound package that includes a mixing board with two microphone jacks, a dual CD Deck, digital hookup, and 6 speaker stereo sound.

Additional amenities include air conditioning and projector and screen rental. The KGB Bar is on premises; drinks are permitted in the theater.

In an effort to keep a space this size within financial reach of the downtown theater community, The Kraine Theater is run on a repertory slot rental basis, with two shows a night running almost every weekend.
