架构师提供的文本描述。拉彭兰塔市剧院的概念是很特别的：剧院建在购物中心的顶层。然而，这个想法是古老的，因为这是戏剧回归其根源，回到市场，回到人民。每年都有数以百万计的人参观购物中心，他们可以享受到各种各样的娱乐活动，而餐厅则提供休息时间，酒店也提供住宿服务。

Text description provided by the architects. The concept for the Lappeenranta City Theatre is exceptional: the theater has been built on the top floor of a shopping center. The idea, however, is ancient as this is theater coming back to its roots, back to the marketplace, back to the people. Millions of people visiting the shopping center annually will be able to enjoy a variety of plays, while the restaurants cater for intermissions and the hotel offers accommodation.

门厅有一种平静的单色气氛，与购物中心繁忙而明亮的色彩形成鲜明对比。只有一个几乎透明的起伏的丝网幕布将门厅与下面的购物商场隔开。观众走上从拱廊到剧院大厅的白色楼梯，到达剧院。

The foyer has a calm monochromatic atmosphere in contrast with the busy bright colors of the shopping center. Only a nearly transparent undulating wire mesh curtain separates the foyer from the shopping arcade below. The audience reaches the theater by walking up a grand white staircase leading from the arcade to the literally theatrical foyer.

这个空间是为表演而设计的，也是为戏剧入场而设计的。镜子的表面模糊了门厅的形状和范围，就像一个人在大舞台上站在聚光灯下的经历一样。白天，天窗像一盏巨大的灯一样，将天空的颜色倍增到铝箔表面，在黑暗的时候，墙壁会反射商场生动的灯光。

This space is designed for performances as much as for dramatic entrances. The mirrored surfaces blur the shape and extent of the foyer; much like an experience one might have standing in the spotlight on the vast stage. In the daytime, the skylight multiplies the colors of the sky onto the foil surfaces like a giant lamp, during the darker hours the walls reflect the vivid lights of the shopping arcade.

剧院是功能的纪念碑，因为几乎所有的空间都在舞台上。这是理想的情况：几乎所有的行动在一个剧院是针对舞台和时间表一般是非常紧的。从地下室装货码头到车间中心的舞台是通过一个集装箱大小的电梯到达的。集合后，可以直接推送到两个舞台之一或排演厅。

The theater is a monument to functionality as virtually all spaces are on stage level. This is the ideal situation: almost all the actions in a theater are directed towards the stage and schedules are generally extremely tight. The stage sets arrive from the basement loading dock to the center of the workshop by a lift the size of a freight container. After assembly, the sets can be pushed directly onto one of the two stages or into the rehearsal hall.

 Floor Plan

从技术人员的空间到道具、服装店和更衣室，支撑空间以线性的方式勾勒出大厅的轮廓。这意味着整个剧院只有一条走廊，而不是通常不连贯的后台空间黑暗丛林。选择的解决方案也为所有的后台提供充足的日光，这对于主要在舞台上和周围工作的专业人员来说是非常重要的。

The support spaces outline the halls in a linear procession from the spaces for the technical personnel onwards to props, costume shop and the dressing rooms. This means that the entire theater only has one single corridor, instead of the usual incoherent dark jungle of backstage spaces. The chosen solution also provides all backspaces with ample daylight, which is of great importance for the professionals mainly working on and around stage.
