3. Civic Needs.
Before going ahead we must consult other local groups who may possibly be involved. It is of no use for the City Council, the Wellington Repertory Theatre and the Association all to build the same sort of theatre. It may be that we should each concentrate on different types of auditorium. A preliminary approach to the Repertory has already been made. A slight variation in our design might mean that we could be of great assistance to other local cultural groups, to whom we have a responsibility. We aim to build what will be one of Wellington's most important buildings, both from the point of view of architecture and of its place in the community.
