Conceived as a vertical axis rising toward the sky, the Starlight Theater stands out on account of its mobile roof, which helps give continuity to the university tradition of open-air performance venues. The project adapts the kinetic macrostructures of sport stadiums to the small scale, and manages to open up the building’s ceiling to the exterior, without wasting. In this way, the upper structure is formed by a complex of perimetral pillars and plaques of prefabricated steel, which facilitates assemblage on the actual site. There are exterior panels which are fixed to place, and six central triangles – arranged like petals of a flower – that are elevated by means of a simple click of the mouse thanks to the computer system. Following the art of origami, the moving panels are superposed on one another, and when they open, they generate a controlled succession of shiftings in series, following a helicoidal pattern. This way of unveiling the stage allows visual connections with the adjoining campus.
