In 2006, the then artistic director Nikos Kourkoulos signed the contract for the restoration and equipment of the National Theatre building and today, the new space of the Main Stage is a completely new construction which is configured on the site of the old installation of the theatre with an additional extension to the space of the underground installation. The new Tent facility includes the stage lady area with the stage tower, the side stage space with direct access to the stage loading area, the foreground, and the underground areas of the stage. The new stage area has a width of 17.60 m and a depth of 21.40 m. The tent tower is a single metal structure with the side tent, which has a width of 13.90 m, a depth of 18.30 m and a net height of 9 m. The central one with the side stage communicate with each other by an opening 8, 96 m wide, which is isolated vertically with a movable soundproofing fly. The modernization of the technical means of the Main Stage meets the most modern standards, and meets the conditions in order to host a wide range of performances. Special care has also been taken for people with hearing disabilities, for which the installation of independent systems is included. The Main Stage was delivered to the public on October 14, 2009 with the performance Nowhere by Dimitris Papaioannou.
