Mustang Performing Arts Center
91ÖÆƬ³§ saves client $1M while delivering state-of-the-art performance arts center
Mustang, OK
The was one of the final projects built by 91ÖÆƬ³§ as part of the Mustang Schools bond program passed in 2017.
The 69,000 SF theater has a performance hall, black box theater, and various classrooms.
Greeted by a 90-foot-high ceiling lined with LED lights for a breathtaking entrance into the space, the performance hall can seat 1,500 people. The front of the stage holds a $350,000 acoustic shell of ten panels on the left side that attaches to a shell roof hung in the ceiling. In addition to the performance space, a theater room made of 12-inch thick concrete walls doubles as a tornado shelter.
Like with most school projects, we kept being fiscally responsible as a high priority. There was an enormous amount of value engineering done pre-bid and post-GMP. Even after construction started, we saved about $1 million – totaling the contingency fund to $1.8 million. Our team was happy to help school leadership decide how to spend $700k towards desired additions and improvements.
The team persevered through challenges to open the performing arts center before the 2021 school year began.
