“Where Education Meets Entertainment!”
The Overcash Performing Arts Center, the new gateway to Central
Campus of Central Piedmont Community College, faces Uptown Charlotte
from King’s Drive between 4th and Elizabeth. This stunning,
130,000-square-foot facility was designed by architect Jeffery Dalzell
from the local firm of Little and Associates.
A New Jewel in the Charlotte Arts Scene
The new Dale F. Halton Theater crowns the Halton family’s great
commitment to this community in beauty and in outreach. CPCC has
produced performing arts events on its Central Campus for over three
decades. Now, with this magnificent 1020-seat venue, built in the style
of a 19th Century opera house, the college houses theatre, music and
dance productions on a stage worthy of the world’s great artists.
Redefining Performances in the Piedmont
The facility has a 2500 square foot stage, a full fly house, an
orchestra pit that holds up to forty instrumentalists and a
custom-designed acoustical Diva orchestra shell by Wenger, the industry
leader in performance equipment. The stage sports an 18’ by 24’
projection screen and a surround sound system for film and video
presentations. The new dressing rooms are spacious, and the building
has scenery and costume shops and a 2000 square foot rehearsal hall.
