Auditorium

The Royal Opera House Chamber Ensemble tipped their hat to the Queen’s Hall auditorium when the Artistic Director called the Hall one of the best in which they had ever played. It was a compliment not to be taken lightly as much time and effort was spent during the redevelopment to set new work-class standards. Some innovations include: premium audio technologies; a concert-quality sound system, state-of-the-art lighting and a counterweight rigging system.

In addition to the Royal Opera House, the Auditorium has played host to the National Dance Theatre Company of Jamaica and myriad other and international productions. Companies have also found the auditorium an ideal spot for their award functions and corporate launches.

The auditorium provides seating for 754. There are 440 seats in the House (depending on the use of the Orchestra Pit) and 264 seats in the balcony; 50 seats are evenly divided between promenade left and right.
