Award-winning AA Theater to officially open on June 15
The AA Theater is the first acoustically functional opera house, concert hall and multi-purpose theater in Jordan. This multi-dimensional theater offers a vibrant space where artists, performers, and innovators can collaborate and develop. The splendor of the theater hints at baroque-era theaters with its burgundy and bronze tones complemented by a contemporary design.
The theater has already won the 2022 Innovation Award for Leisure and Entertainment.
The technical aspects of the project were spearheaded and installed by theater systems integrators International New Technical Est. (INTE).
With its exceptional design, intelligent audio, visual systems, 12 motorized heads, a comprehensive rigging system, 20 sqm LED screen, 250 lighting fixtures and built-in orchestra pit for 30 musicians, the AA Theater is an adaptable, world-class space that will immerse audiences and captivate minds across the country. It is the curtain call we have all been waiting for.
