The 1995 Pritzker Prize laureate’s complex will be accordingly colossal, spread across 260,000 square feet and anchored by a 2,000-seat performance hall. Also set to include a gallery space and restaurant, Il Teatro’s varied programming—opera, theater, dance, film, ballet, concerts, and more—will spill out from the building and into a large multi-level plaza suspended above a large water feature; located directly opposite Il Teatro within the plaza will be an amphitheater for open-air performances. The future performing arts hub will be fused to the rest of Aljada’s nascent Naseej creative district via two lush urban parks—“green spines” per the developer—lined with cafés, artist studios, and spaces for additional cultural programming.
