The new theatre would not only have a larger auditorium (allowing more people to see shows), it would have a larger stage house to accommodate Broadway-sized physical productions. Works first staged in the tiny opera house now have to be redesigned and rebuilt if they are to move on. One of the reasons for the new building is to help make new shows ready for moving to commercial runs elsewhere. The new building would also house the staff of the theatre (and possibly its extensive musical theatre library) and complement the Goodspeed season.
