The 2019 plan promised an open-air theatre for 8,000 spectators. The Foundation's 2025 brochure shows an amphitheatre in its construction progress pages, and RIBAJ describes a circular amphitheatre set into the ground. The Foundation does not say whether the built venue keeps the 8,000 figure, so we treat it separately from the 650-seat theatre in the Royal Arts Complex.
