THE FLOATING THEATRE

Remote construction
Building the theatre off site will give tremendous cost savings from not having to establish a site in the inner city. The general added cost for constructing in Copenhagen inner city is estimated at 10-15%. It can even be built in a large hall like the B&W shipyard, with all the benefits of a construction site protected from rough weather.

Remote construction will also spare the inner city from the noise pollution and heavy traffic that accompanies a 3-year large-scale construction.
Furthermore since the Ferries do not yet have new terminal facilities, there is a great risk of a delay on the construction start. Constructing the theatre on a more convenient location gives the opportunity to start construction 3 years before the ferries have left the site.
