B. Stage

Description: The BEMA is an outdoor venue consisting of a roped-off lawn approximately 62’W at the stage end by 146’D by 100’W at the entrance. There is a concrete stage at the north end of the lawn, consisting of a shallow but wide downstage area and a series of shallow, wide built-in risers upstage, split in the middle by a set of stairs leading down to underneath the rear of the stage. There are 2 large bushes in front of the stage framing concrete steps leading up onto the stage. There is another small, earthen stage lined with paving stones on the west side of the lawn, mid way down. Because of the unevenness of the surface, this stage is not used for music or dance performances.
