Theatre-Studio Mário Viegas
- Description:
- The structural changes resulted from widespread architectural structure and functioning of existing buildings. It also resulted from the need to provide the Theatre-Studio of new updated technical equipment so as to meet the needs of today's comfort, safety and versatility. It was a deep reshuffle that aimed to provide the Theatre-Studio, a new theatre room, a new cafeteria, as well as several other spaces namely for technical and storage purposes. The intervention dimension led to an almost complete overhaul of the Theatre-Studio current structure and one of the outbuildings.
