1987 – Raleigh Studios – More that a Lot

In 1987, the company completed its masterplan for the redevelopment of Raleigh Studios and inaugurated its new stages by hosting the epic play, The Mahabharata as part of the Los Angeles Festival.  Operating under the tag line, “More than a Lot,” Raleigh Studios reimagined the concept of the independent production studio, adding hundreds of thousands of feet of stages, offices and production support space to the property.  In the process, Raleigh virtually reinvented the art of soundstage construction and developed a configuration with stages and adjoining production support space that would be emulated across the globe in the coming decades.
