SkyDeck at Univeristy of Massachusetts Amherst

Amherst, MA - For nearly forty years, the Department of Theater at the University of Massachusetts Amherst has been a center for vibrant teaching and exceptional theater training. The Department is a place where excellence is pursued, where mentorship matters, where quality counts. InterAmerica Stage, Inc. in concert with Barbizon Lighting of Boston are proud to have been part of the continued commitment of UMASS to provide excellence in theatre.


IAStage recently provided a SkyDeck wire tension grid For the “Curtain Theatre” at UMASS. This black-box theatre originally had a series of fixed catwalks that limited placement and focus of lighting instruments above the stage. The perimeter catwalks were modified, and HVAC elements were relocated to accommodate the new WTG system. Students and staff now have easy access over the entire stage area.
