Debrecen had a permanent theatre company as early as the end of the 18th century, but for a long time it entertained the public in the chariot theatre of an inn. The imposing theatre building, designed by Antal Szkalnitzky in the Romantic style with Moorish and Byzantine components, was opened in 1856 and has remained the pride of the city and one of its most important historical monuments ever since. However, space in the magnificent building was limited, the number of theatre-goers in Debrecen grew rapidly, and more room was needed for the production and storage of sets, props and costumes. After several renovations, the good condition of the exterior, the theatre was still hampered by outdated technology and inadequate auditorium space up until the late 2010s. The current renovation project was therefore justified by a number of factors. Seating capacity needed to be increased, the orchestra pit had to be enlarged, the lighting system needed upgrading and there was a need for more dressing room capacity, not to mention the need for easy accessibility. The architectural design was divided into two parts along the iron curtain of the stage: P\u00e9ter Kov\u00e1cs was responsible for the transformation of the spaces accessible to the public, and Andr\u00e1s Tisza for the theatre’s operations. R\u00f3zsa Csavarga and Bence T\u00f6r\u00f6k Szabolcs managed the interior design of both parts. The reconstruction not only renewed Debrecen’s theatre but also prepared it for the challenges of 21st-century theatre and also has found a new, direct link with the city whilst making little changes to the building’s outward appearance. This design approach is an exemplary way of revising all the issues raised by the contemporary use of a listed theatre building as such.<\/p>\n
