Welcome To New Stages Limited

New Stages Limited is one of the country’s leading arts consultancies which focuses on delivering building projects for the cultural sector, particularly the performing arts.  Its principal, David Beidas, has an unrivalled depth of experience in theatre and capital project management and is able to bring these together to help arts organisations create successful buildings.

Major projects completed include the Belgrade Theatre, Coventry, Birmingham Rep/Library of Birmingham and Lyric Hammersmith.  More recently, David played a significant role in Leeds Playhouse’s £16m redevelopment scheme, completed in 2019, and as Project Manager for The Story Museum Oxford, which has finally opened in full in 2021 as well as going back at the Belgrade Theatre to work on their 2020 redevelopment project.

Since 2021, David has successfully delivered Cockpit Studio’s redevelopment of its Deptford building as Project Manager and returned to Leeds Playhouse to manage the replacement of their main roof.  He is currently working on a similar roof project for The Story Museum as well as supporting Rich Mix on a number of capital interventions in their building on Bethnal Green Road.

He has also returned to non-capital work as Executive Consultant for Imagineer, helping them to re-establish their organisation post Covid.

This project must be regarded as a success in its outcome. Indeed, its realisation in the face of budgetary and time constraints is impressive. The original vision has largely been achieved in terms of the accommodation provided, and in its quality and accessibility.

Slide

David’s knowledge of managing capital projects was invaluable as we undertook the theatre’s first ever major refurbishment project. His attention to detail, understanding of the theatre environment, and willingness to take a firm stance when needed were all attributes that were a real contribution to our project’s success. No capital project should be undertaken without him!
