Tagore Theatre, Chandigarh, India (1960-1962)
1949-2001
Project
This project series documents the Tagore Theatre in Sector 18 in Chandigarh, India from 1960-1962. This project consisted of a 600-seat theatre comprised of two square-shaped volumes, turned on their axis to overlap at their corners. The stage was located directly at the overlap, with the back-of-house occupying one square and the audience in the other. Inside, the roof frame was left exposed and meticulous detail was paid to the theatre's acoustics. The building's brick exterior had almost no windows, except those located along the first-level below a canopy that wrapped the theatre. Large-scale alterations have since been made to the iconic theatre.
The project is recorded through drawings and textual records dating from 1949-2001. The majority of the drawings are reprographic copies, but many are annotated. There are a number of drawings dating from 1999-2001 that likely show future work to the theatre, since they are outside the scope of the theatre's original construction. The textual records consist of research on theatre design, dating much earlier than this project, and a magazine review of the acoustics in the Tagore Theatre.
Materials in this project series have been arranged by material type and the drawings have been arranged based on their intended purpose.
