As the performing arts industry has been rapidly expanding in Korea, its audience and infrastructure are also increasing on par. Among various types of performing arts, growth of the musical industry is especially noticeable. Despite the fact that increasingly more researches are conducted as the public interest in performing arts grows, there are still relatively few researches on the theater for musical performance. The goal of this research is to develop and provide a standard model of ideal musical stage and auditorium types for references and future constructions. Methods included conducting studies on various factors that involve the stage area and musical genre, collecting and analyzing data from major musical theaters both within and outside Korea, and gathering field data through interviews with professionals working on musical stages. The findings are as follow: the ideal size for the proscenium arch is 15~16m in width and 9~10m in height for performing large-scale musicals. The main stage should be within 14~15m in both width and depth. The entire stage, including the two side stages, needs to be 40~45m wide and 17~19m deep. For a medium-sized theater, the width can be reduced to 24~30m. Additionally, it is ideal to have rear stage space of 5~7m deep behind the main stage. The most ideal model includes a relatively low stage of 800~900mm in height, the main stage area designed as a full stage trap, and sufficient pit space instead of stage machineries underneath the stage. The most efficient minimum size for the orchestra pit is 45~60m2 for 20 to 30 musicians. In terms of size and organization of the auditorium, the maximum seating capacity should be between 1,200 and 1,300 for most satisfactory viewing experience and friendly ambience between the audience and the performers. Considering both profits and viewing experience, however, it is more realistic to have the maximum seating capacity increased to between 1,500 and 1,600. The gridiron requires various point hoists, such as movable winches, to be freely positioned as needed. Therefore, its steel frame structure must be rigid, and the grating needs to have sufficient allowed load. It is also worth considering expanding the gridiron area up to top of the apron stage. Since the set battens are the main device of the over stage, there should be enough of them with sufficient load capacity and speed. The motor room needs to be partitioned for the purpose of soundproofing. If the motor room is constructed with independent panels, air-conditioning must be able to flow through the room. For the 1st gallery, more than 2m of effective width need to be procured. In addition, handrails with appropriate height and weight support and toe board must be installed for public safety. The effective height from the stage should be the same height as the proscenium arch. The stage machinery control room needs to be about 20m2 in area for stage control and short rests. The room should also have side views of the main stage from the same height as the proscenium arch. The sound control room and the lighting control room need to be separated. Both rooms should have full vision of the entire stage, and the ideal size for each room is 15~20m2. F.O.H. is especially crucial for performing a musical and needs to be as big as 25~35m2 in large theater 10~20m2 in medium one. The loading dock is most desired to have the same organization of levels as the stage. If a freight elevator is needed, it should be larger than 60m3 in volume and have maximum capacity weight of over 5,000kg. The area in front of the loading dock would be completely leveled with enough space for vehicles to load, unload, and turn. Possible ways to improve this research include sufficient studies on musical theaters in other countries and more thorough analysis on the auditorium. Further research will be conducted in the future by visiting and investigating foreign musical theaters, and additional researches on auditorium composition will be conducted. ，免费韩语论文，韩语论文 |
