Kilden Performing Arts Centre gathers all of the region\u2019s performing arts institutions under one roof. The building includes a 1200-seat concert hall for Kristiansand Symphony Orchestra, a 700-seat theater hall shared by Agder Regional Theatre (now called Kilden Theatre) and Opera S\u00f8r opera ensemble (now called Kilden Opera), a studio stage, and a multi-purpose hall.<\/p>\n

Kilden produces experiences. The cantilevering undersides of the auditoriums are clad with an undulating wooden wall that covers both the public foyer and the entrance area on the pier. This wall, made of CNC milled solid oak planks, creates a division between everyday life and the fantasy world of arts and performances. It is not only a theatrical effect but a tactile artifact improving the acoustics of the foyer. The three monotonous black aluminum fa\u00e7ades complement this spectacular space. The way the halls work together with the support spaces forms the core of Kilden\u2019s design. The organization of the service areas allows shared production equipment to serve all halls efficiently and without interference.<\/p>\n
