THEATER RENOVATION in CLEVELAND’S PLAYHOUSE SQUARE features HYDRAULIC STAGE LIFTS.
Hanna Theatre's gala re-opening happened last Saturday following its $14.7 million renovation. In
addition to a massive facelift, the storied theater now features three hydraulic stage lifts which protrude
into the house seats. ATLANTIC INDUSTRIAL TECHNOLOGIES was hired under Turner Construction & JR
Clancy to design and manufacture the impressive Hydraulic System. The lifts will move at an
unprecedented 2 feet per second which will excite any director wanting to amaze their audience.
Congratulations to the new home of the Great Lakes' Theater Festival in Playhouse Square, Cleveland.
