Murray Studio is a 80- 100 seat black box studio with lighting and sound systems.  Our facilities also include an acting studio, carpentry and prop shops, a costume studio (housed in City Centre Atlantic) , and a design studio.

The Department of Theatre is a training institution therefore its spaces are staffed with technical students enrolled at the university.
