Rangatira, Q’s main performance space, is a state of the art flexiform auditorium. It provides our artists with inspiration and also challenges them to connect and engage with audiences in different ways. The name is uniquely New Zealand, it gives mana to our artists, and it reflects the energy of the room.
Rangatira is a highly adaptable space. It gives designers the capability to reconfigure both the stage and seating to suit the needs of a given production. It accommodates a wide variety of artistic events including dance, drama, comedy, music and multi-media art events.
Flexible staging is integral to Q’s design. The seats can be removed completely or moved from one configuration to another in just a few hours, which means that hiring companies have an exciting array of possibilities for creative staging.
Our seating design is optimised for use in End Stage, Short Traverse, Long Traverse, Thrust, In the Round and Promenade configurations, however, seating can be adapted to many configurations, allowing extraordinary creative freedom.
