Rose Theater is the result of a collaboration between Jazz at Lincoln Center Artistic Director Wynton Marsalis and the top international theater planners and engineers.

Designed acoustically as the premier jazz performance hall in the world, Rose Theater utilizes ambitious design elements such as a retractable concert shell ceiling and a sophisticated acoustical curtain and banner system to help tailor the sound quality of the hall for individual performances. Rose Theater features eleven movable on-stage seating towers that allow for a variety of seating configurations. The towers can be linked in a gentle curve on stage to create a “Theater-in-the-Round,” or they can be stored against the back wall making way for a traditional proscenium stage. For additional versatility, Rose Theater also features an orchestra pit on an adjustable lift that rises to two additional levels, either providing extra audience seating, or extending the stage itself.
