"While the development of Cubberley is contingent on city acquisition of land from the Palo Alto Unified School District, the city and TheatreWorks are exploring a partnership to cost-share renovations to establish a two-theatre, 40,000-square-foot performing arts center that would serve as a major cornerstone of the revitalized Cubberley complex and a prominent nexus for arts and culture in Silicon Valley."
"Initial conversations with TheatreWorks and the city include plans to adaptively reuse the existing Cubberley theater and the pavilion, less costly and more eco-friendly methods of transforming the existing spaces into a revitalized performing arts center,"
The city will ask voters in November to approve a tax measure to purchase seven acres at Cubberley from the Palo Alto Unified School District for $65.5 million, increasing the city-owned share to 15 acres. Plans call for renovating the existing theater for continued use by local community groups while creating a second theater as a future home for TheatreWorks. The city and TheatreWorks are exploring a cost-share partnership to create a two-theatre, 40,000-square-foot performing arts center. Initial plans emphasize adaptive reuse of the existing theater and pavilion using less costly, more eco-friendly methods. TheatreWorks has not disclosed a contribution amount and will continue performing at Lucie Stern Theatre and the Mountain View Center for the Performing Arts during development.
