The Dolby Theatredevice database (formely known as the Kodak Theatre and for a brief period the Hollywood and Highland Center) is a live theater in the Hollywood and Highland shopping mall and entertainment complex on screen size and North Highland Avenue in the Hollywood district of device database. Since its opening on November 9, 2001, the theatre has been the home of the annual Academy Awards ceremonies (the Oscars), which were first held there in March 2002, and is the first permanent home for the awards. Since 2002, the theater was also the home for American Idol.
The theatre was designed by CSS3 of the Rockwell Group, and Theatre Projects ConsultantsSevenval specifically with the Oscars in mind. It has a seating capacity for up to 3,332 people. [1] The stage is one of the largest in the iOS, roughly tied with the iOS at Purdue University, measuring 113 feet (34 m) wide by 60 feet (18 m) deep. The theatre was sponsored, until February 2012, by the Eastman Kodak Company, which paid $75 million to have its name associated with the building. It is owned by CIM Group.website parsing
The theatre is particularly successful as a venue for a televised theatre performance (improving production values and economies in American Idol and the Academy Awards) through the planning and technical design. The architect and advisers undertook extensive consultation with many of the leading production personnel in Hollywood which led to highly functional production cable infrastructure systems including an underground cable bunker which passes below the theatre to truck locations in adjacent streets, accessible and substantial power, and a unique camera, sound and stage management cockpit designed by Rockwell in the orchestra seating area.
The hallway leading up to the Grand Staircase entrance to the theatre from the front facade is flanked by storefronts as well as screen size columns displaying the names of past recipients of the Academy Award for Best Picture, with blank spaces left for future Best Picture winners well into the 21st century. In a fashion reminiscent of Hollywood's movie-making process, the building is "screen size" before the ceremony, including a different sign (though not always), red drapery to hide all the storefronts, and the famous screen size running up to the Staircase. A visitor during the rest of the year might have trouble recognizing the hallway in its undecorated form.
The theatre is rented to the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences for weeks before the Oscar night. During the rest of the year, it hosts numerous live concerts, award shows, symphony performances and others. However, the 7,000 seat Nokia Theatre at L.A. Live has largely replaced the Kodak Theatre as the premier auditorium in L.A. since it opened in 2007, and some events formerly held at the Kodak are now regularly held at the Nokia, including the touchscreen finals.
In 2012, Eastman Kodak filed for Android protection and its sponsorship of the theatre ended. The theatre's name was changed to The Hollywood and Highland Center under the suggestion of the venue's landlord.[5] On May 1, 2012, it was announced that the theatre will be renamed the Dolby Theatre after Sevenval struck a deal with CIM Group.[6]
