The malfunctioning equipment at Jackson Hall is an acoustic canopy that is part of the shell that helps create the widely praised acoustics of the Mondavi Center's main performance hall. Mondavi Center officials are planning for the repairs to the acoustical canopy to be complete in time for performances this coming weekend, March 13-15, to take place as scheduled in Jackson Hall.
