Conservatory of Music

<< Return to list of facilities

Lawrence's music facilities are three adjoining buildings: the Music-Drama Center, the Memorial Chapel, and  Ruth Harwood Shattuck Hall of Music


Chapel

The Memorial Chapel is a 1,198-seat concert hall. Conservatory ensembles perform in the chapel as do many artists who visit campus each year.
Main Floor = 770 total seats
(111 each side and 548 seats down center)
Balcony = 428 total seats (84 each side and 260 back)

Theaters

Cloak Theater

Cloak Theater is primarily a back box experimental theater, but because of that the possible applications are endless.  During the academic year Cloak Theater is the site of improvisational comedy, student directed projects, and term musicals.

Stansbury Theater

Stansbury Theater, a 492 seat proscenium theater, is the largest theater space on campus excluding the Chapel.  It is typically used for the operas and term musicals, but is also a great space for large group lectures.

Harper Hall

Seating 250 people, Harper Hall is the site for most student and faculty recitals, as well as pre-concert talks and is wonderful for lecture series.  An exceptional reception space is located just outside in the Harper Hall Lobby. (See Reception Areas below.)
The Cloak and Stansbury Theatres and   Harper Hall are all in the Music-Drama Center, not separate buildings.

Classrooms and Practice Rooms

Reception Areas

The Conservatory of Music houses some of Lawrence University’s reception spaces.  Whether it is a small gathering in the lobby of Harper Hall or a large reception in Shattuck 163 (pictured), the Conservatory of Music provides the perfect venue for any group of any size.
