Room acoustics must be adapted to the intended function, and acoustic requirements vary depending on the type of sound production. Acoustic investigations were carried out in the hall of the Olimpia Academic Music Theater, which was originally a cinema. Acoustic requirements for cinemas are entirely different from those for opera singing. To ensure good acoustic conditions in the interior, an architectural adaptation or introduction of variable acoustics is necessary. The analysed interior was adapted to the needs of opera singing and the cinema function was abandoned. The objective of the research is to evaluate the acoustic quality of the hall for the purposes of an opera house.
