The stage looks about 16" or 24" too high for being what looks too close to the end of an UP stairway. If those stairs are coming from just in to this building, they have given just enough SRO for maybe 2 rows of people, with just barely enough room for those needing the stairs. I guess I just have to be there! It looks cramped, somehow, you know? If there was any way to pull the risers up-stage 10 or more feet away from the stairs, I would go for it. That may be easier than also lowering the risers.
