lecture theaters
Tiered classroom spaces
Lecture theaters are large rooms designed for one speaker to address many listeners, with tiered seating that rises away from the front so everyone can see.
The term is primarily British; Americans typically say lecture halls.
Universities use them for courses with high enrollment: The intro biology lecture theater seats three hundred students.
