Theatre Seating: Mayflower Theatre, Southampton

OVERVIEW

Race Furniture worked closely with Charcoal Blue in order to come up with design proposals that would work in this landmark theatre.


We were asked to supply 40+ boxed chairs where a specific type or design of the chair had to tip up and completely fold into a steel box. The 1,600+ Chavenage chairs were designed to match the Mayflower décor, which celebrates the tradition and heritage of the building, while also meeting the practical needs of a modern theatre.


Part of our brief for this 11-week project was to, remove and replace all of the seats in the stalls and circle with 1,659 brand-new (and wider) seats, reupholster all seats in the balcony and to increase accessibility, with better facilities for people with disabilities.


Race completely refurbished 500 existing traditional chairs by repainting the frames, providing new show wood and re-upholstering the seats and backs.
