The Alice Griffin Jewel Box Theater
An intimate opera house experience.
The Griffin combines the decadence and acoustic perfection of an opera house with the immersive intimacy that is Signature’s hallmark trait. Crafted plywood panels frame the proscenium and wrap around the balcony front and sides and are acoustically engineered to fill the house with full, clear, and rich sound. This theater is named for Dr. Alice Griffin, the prolific playwright best known as the author of Shakespeare’s Women in Love.
Modeled after a European opera house, the 191-seat Griffin Theatre provides intimacy and engagement between performers and audience. It features a 36’ x 25’-5” stage and fly system with 18 line sets.
