Seating Configurations and Capacities:
The Sheridan Opera House has the unique ability to host events that require full theater seating, partial theater seating, cabaret seating, or even no seating at all. Our intimate venue offers five major seating configurations depending on the type of event being held. Please see the diagrams and respective capacities below. Minor variations on these basic layouts can be made; but changes must be approved prior to the event. A 20' Wide X 8' Deep "thrust" or stage extension is available upon request. This works particularly well for theatrical performances and weddings which often require additional on-stage space. It should be noted however that installing the thrust does require the removal of Rows A and B on the main floor which will reduce seating capacity by twenty.
