Engineer's note

Mike Jackson

Designing a new stage floor in a listed theatre is always a balancing act - modern performance needs on one hand, heritage constraints on the other. The wing extension pushed that even further, but we delivered a flexible system that’s built to last.

Constraint

Existing venue fabric, production loads and limited downtime.

MJC role

Structural Engineer

Output

Structural details, checks and site evidence for the project team.

Project summary

What the brief was — and what we delivered.

MJC supported stage and extension works at the Dominion Theatre, helping a major West End venue adapt to modern performance requirements.

Theatre setting

Work in a live or listed theatre environment requires structural design that protects heritage, respects operational constraints and supports the technical needs of contemporary productions.

Engineering response

MJC coordinated structural input around the stage, extension and venue constraints, providing practical details that could be delivered without compromising the building's character.
