Having taken soundings around the sector, the late Richard Brett, the stage engineer of his time, discovered that many agreed with him that in the design and equipping of performance spaces, too many mistakes were being made.
The solution: to gather together all involved to discuss, to understand and to learn about the good and the bad.
The format: to be inclusive and as welcoming as possible to not only those engaged in the design and construction of performance spaces - architects, consultants and engineers, as well as acousticians, technicians, owners and contractors - but also to those who create the art; those for whom the spaces must work and whose needs must be understood; to create the optimum environment for stimulation, comprehension and development.
In 2002, the Theatre Engineering and Architecture Conference was born, followed by editions in 2006, 2010 & 2014, with delegates from across the globe travelling to London.
