Designed by Ralph Rapson and built in 1971, the structure houses four theaters—a thrust, proscenium, theater in the round, and black box—as well as the studios for Radio K. An anchor for the University's West Bank Arts Quarter, the Rarig has been praised for its boldness and functionality[1][2] while also being described as "menacing".[2] DesignThe Rarig Center was designed and built in 1971 by American architectural firm Ralph Rapson and Associates.[1] Erected in the West Bank neighborhood of Minneapolis on the campus of the University of Minnesota, the Rarig was constructed to house theaters and television studios.[2] It sits due west of Ferguson Hall (1985), across 4th Street South to the north of the Regis Center for Art (2003), and directly southeast of Wilson Library (1967).[1][3][4][5] It is the oldest of the five buildings to make up the University's West Bank Arts Quarter.[3] Rapson's design for the Center borrowed imagery from Swiss-French designer Le Corbusier's New Brutalism movement.[1] In a contemporary review of the structure, author Larry Millett noted that the Rarig is the "strongest architectural statement on the West Bank campus."[3] Upon venturing inside, he wrote, "you half expect to find the leaders of the Evil Empire gathered somewhere in the three-story-high atrium, plotting the demise of Luke Skywalker."[3] Authors David Gebhard and Tom Martison indicated that, like other Rapson-designed theaters, the Rarig's were quite functional and described the building as a "theatrical piece of sculpture".[1] Millett wrote that the building's interior rooms—the offices, the radio and television studios, and the theaters—are all apparent in the building's external features.[3] FacilitiesTheatersThe Rarig houses four theaters and hosts two troupes: the University Theatre and the Xperimental Theater.[6] The largest space is the Stoll Thrust Theatre, a 460-seat thrust stage designed as a quarter-scale replica of the original Guthrie Theater, which Rapson also designed. The Thrust features a steeply overhanging balcony, described as an "Alpine Slope".[7] The next largest theater is the Whiting Proscenium Theatre, also called the Pro, a 420-seat proscenium stage well suited to productions with large casts and dance performances. The Kilburn Arena Theatre, a 200-seat theater in the round, includes a sprung floor over the original wood flooring. The Nolte Xperimental Theatre, also known as the X, is a black box theater with a capacity of up to 99 audience members and is configurable in a variety of ways.[7] Productions in the X are produced only by undergraduates.[6] OtherThe studios of Radio K (KUOM), the University of Minnesota's radio station, are housed in the Rarig Center.[8] A variety of classrooms and theater laboratories also exist within the building, including a design studio and costume, scenery, and lighting shops.[7] References1. ^1 2 3 4 {{cite book|last1=Gebhard|first1=David|last2=Martinson|first2=Tom|title=A Guide to the Architecture of Minnesota|date=1978|publisher=University of Minnesota Press|location=Minneapolis|isbn=978-0816607754|page=53}} 2. ^{{cite book|last1=Boyle|first1=Deirdre|title=Subject to Change: Guerrilla Television Revisited|date=1997|publisher=Oxford University Press|location=Oxford|isbn=978-0-19-504334-1|page=66}} 3. ^1 2 3 4 5 6 {{cite book|last1=Millett|first1=Larry|authorlink1=Larry Millett|title=AIA Guide to the Twin Cities: The Essential Source on the Architecture of Minneapolis and St. Paul|date=2007|publisher=Minnesota Historical Society Press|location=Saint Paul, MN|isbn=978-0-87351-540-5|pages=147–148}} 4. ^{{cite map|author1=University of Minnesota Parking and Transportation Services| author2=CartoGraphics Incorporated|title=University of Minnesota Minneapolis West Bank|url = http://www1.umn.edu/pts/maps/Library/pdf/WBank.pdf | archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20150316154908/http://www1.umn.edu/pts/maps/Library/pdf/WBank.pdf | date=2014| archivedate=March 16, 2015| accessdate=July 13, 2015| format= PDF| publisher= University of Minnesota}} 5. ^{{cite book|last1=Lehmberg|first1=Stanford|last2=Pflaum|first2=Ann M.|title=The University of Minnesota, 1945–2000|date=2000|publisher=University of Minnesota Press|location=Minneapolis|isbn=978-0-8166-3255-8|page=153}} 6. ^1 {{cite book|last1=Berger|first1=Todd R.|title=Insiders' Guide to the Twin Cities|date=2008|publisher=Globe Pequot Press|location=Guilford, CT|isbn=0-7627-4788-9|edition=6th|pp=194–195}} 7. ^1 2 {{cite web|title=Rarig Center|url=https://theatre.umn.edu/about/facilities/rarig|website=Department of Theatre Arts & Dance|publisher=University of Minnesota|accessdate=July 13, 2015|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20150422021815/https://theatre.umn.edu/about/facilities/rarig|archivedate=April 22, 2015|date=2011}} 8. ^{{cite book|last1=Davis|first1=Rick|title=Get Media Airplay: A Guide to Getting Song Exposure, Music/Product Tie-Ins & Radio-Play Spins!|date=2006|publisher=Hal Leonard Corporation|location=Milwaukee|isbn=978-1-4234-1308-0|page=156}} External links
