The center is the black box that is the scripted performance. Its relationship to the audience is the threshold that I am linking to the ballasts on the façade.

Exterior Courtyard leading from Path train platform approaching theater from 15' below grade.

The catwalks will be the means of approaching the performance area for grade level entry.
For now the floor on grade level outside of the black box (ie. The space inside the existing building ((ie. Ie. The audience dwelling area)) is static and the investigation will deal with the quality of spaces created from the combinations of the four moving walls on the black box.

The floor on the inside of the black box is the only vertical movement thus far and is controlled by the solid ballast. Hatches link wall movement to control ballasts in diagram
