(Note that critical measurements require independent site survey at the renter’s expense)

The full performance space is 60’ x 40’. The space has a treated concrete floor. There is a sprung floor installed, measuring 32’ x 22’ in the center of the space. The sprung floor is temporarily installed in the space but will not be moved for individual productions. Red Eye can provide accessible ramps onto the sprung floor when necessary.

Focus Arts has a small parking lot and access to street parking.

Focus Arts is ADA accessible.

As the sprung floor is a loan that does not belong to Red Eye, no alterations to the floor (including any kind of fastenings with nails or screws) can be accomodated.

Additionally, no permanent/temporary fastenings or alterations can be made to the concrete floor and any of the space’s interior or exterior walls.

There is a grid above the entire performance space; it is 14’ from the sprung floor.

Our grid is designed to hold traditional lighting and sound equipment, with even weight distributions. Heavy loads off of a single point, and aerial work mounted to the grid or the ceiling above, is not possible. Please fold Red Eye staff into conversations involving any additional rigging beyond lighting and sound.

There is hot power in the ceiling and dimmer packs to flexibly deploy.

There is an isolated sound circuit with sound power in the ceiling and on the ground.

There is a small dressing room that also serves as technical storage. There are approximately 6 stations of mirrored seating.

There is access to a shared, accessible, all-gender bathroom, that is equipped with a shower, immediately outside the dressing room. There is access to a kitchenette as well as gendered bathrooms in common areas of the Focus Arts building. Please be inclusive to all users of these shared spaces.

There are two rolling costume racks.

Note that storage is very limited and only available during the rental period.

We have 95 chairs.

In our current setup with a portable sprung floor, a proscenium setup with risers will accommodate 65 people, and an “in the round” configuration with a single row of chairs around the sprung floor seats 70. To use all 95 chairs, we would need to combine both “in the round” configuration with the risers in the proscenium setup. An end-stage configuration is not possible at this time though we do plan to install a continuous floor so this will be possible in the future.

Please indicate in your request if you intend to host public events larger than 80 people, as we’ll need to discuss performance space layout, egress, and audience safety.

Lights, sound, and seating platforms can be moved around for your rental period, but will need to be returned to the original configuration before you leave. Please account for this setup and reset as part of your rental period.

Red Eye has a set of double doors that lead into the space, but there is limited clearance. Large objects, pieces of scenery, sculpture, etc. should be planned ahead of time to make sure they can enter the space.

We are not currently able to safely support the use of fog machines or theatrical haze. We have not tested the reach and sensitivity of the building’s shared fire suppression systems as this will require a coordinated effort with Seward Redesign, other tenants, and consultation with the fire department.

To keep the space free of dust and debris, we ask artists not to use glitter or any materials that will linger on the surfaces of the space and be difficult to clean upon your departure.

The use of fire and water (except water to drink) are clear safety concerns. Possible exceptions may be made for small instances of fire or water if preparations (such as flame proofing documentation for scenery, costumes and props), a considered safety / damage alleviation plan, notifications made well in advance (4 weeks) and if Red Eye is completely satisfied with all necessary safety measures and emergency protocols in place. Non-notification will be considered a serious breach of rental agreement.

Food and drink are permitted in the dressing room and in the exterior shared kitchenette area. Water and show-specific consumables are fine to have in the theater space. If you plan to have a reception with food and drink, please discuss the setup and cleanup plan with Red Eye in advance, to minimize rodent activity as well as for the safety and continued/uninterrupted use of equipment.

Food waste should be disposed of in the common area trash for our community’s health and safety, particularly to minimize the occurrence of rodents. Renters are responsible for taking the trash out daily during the rental period.

Red Eye provides basic cleaning supplies. Renters are responsible for cleaning during the rental period and returning the space to the state it was in at the beginning of the rental period.

SYSTEM AND POWER: Red Eye maintains a basic sound system. Our main system consists of 3 QSC K8.2 Powered Speakers. We currently expect to have a sub by May 21, 2023 supported by a Midas 16 channel digital mixer. Separate and exclusive power is available. There are 4 20 AMP circuits in the ceiling and 2 circuits at floor level. There is no intercom.

MIXING LOCATIONS: Mixing location and control can be negotiated based on seating arrangement and considerations should be made to keep lighting and sound show control in appropriate proximity as there is no intercom.

PLAYBACK: Red Eye has a 2012 Mac Mini 16GB RAM, 1TB SSD computer with mouse, keyboard and monitor for basic sound and video playback or show control. The computer has an HDMI out if you have a file you need to play and bring your own projector.

ADDITIONAL EQUIPMENT:

4 Shure SM58 Microphones

4 microphone stands

1 Stereo DI Box

1 Mono DI Box

Assorted XLR cables

Red Eye has limited stage equipment so please confirm any expectations/assumptions of available inventory described here:

SEATING: Red Eye’s (12) 4 x 8 Wenger-style, gray-carpet risers are generally configured into three levels of 8”, 16”, and 24” risers, using (4) risers at each level. This seating bank can hold 70 seats. Red Eye has an additional 20 seats that could be used as overflow or set up in other configurations to maximize seating capacity.

LEGGINGS/MASKING: (10) 10’ wide by 14’ tall flexible legs/masking can be used to cover the back wall, create a set of legs or a quick change area if needed. There is more permanent masking on the short walls of the space that can be moved by renters upon notification to Red Eye (and not considered part of movable soft-goods inventory) but will need to be reset by renters before the end of your rental period.

RIGGING: It is not possible for any alterations such as fastening or drilling into the walls or the floor. Please plan any scenery or rigging pieces accordingly. The lighting grid will support an object up to 300 lbs in a single point given a 10’ radius. This is not suitable to support a human body or heavy object in motion (e.g. aerial work.)

STAGE FLOOR: The raised surface is a 32’ by 20’ sprung dance floor with a matte black, painted, ¼” masonite surface. This was generously loaned to us. It is not possible to drill or secure anything to this surface that would damage it.

STAGE WEIGHT: We have (8) 10 lb fly system counterweights that we use as stage weight (!!) and 1 sandbag.

CARPENTRY ADJUSTMENTS: We do allow small carpentry adjustments on-site, provided adjustments that generate dust and debris take place outside (corners of the shared parking lot) followed with appropriate cleanup. It is not possible to wash or clean up paint using any of the common sinks in the building (per Red Eye’s lease) so we suggest bagging and paint supplies for cleanup off-site.

REP PLOT: There is a basic rep plot in place with two rows of (3) front light (6” Fresnels), 1 row (3) back light (Source 4 Par W), one set of (3) shins on SL and SR, 1 set of (3) High Sides SL and SR and 3 pre-channeled specials (which can be focused) over the stage. This may vary depending on present needs and inventory so please check in a few weeks before to finalize. Please restore all changes to the rep plot at the end of your project, including pulling and filing color and gobo.

POWER LOCATIONS: The grid has hot power located 10’ apart, 20 amps each, running along the length of the space. All connections are edison. There is separate power for lighting and sound. Specifics are here (Page 3): Red Eye Space Drawing_FINAL.pdf

DATA: Red Eye is in the process of finalizing our CAT 6 data network and patch bay. In the meantime, all lighting DATA is run via DMX (3 pin and 5 pin.)

DIMMERS: Red Eye is a flexible space. We have 6 deployable 3.8K, 6 channel Leprecon dimmers as part of our rep plot with a total of 36 possible circuits, not including house lights. We have 2 small, 4-channel dimmers to deploy for dimmable practicals and the like.

Red Eye does not currently provide projectors as part of our rental inventory. If your performance includes projection, plan to rent your own projector and mounting equipment, and allow for time to hang it from the grid if applicable.
