One good building out of dozens doesn't make someone a "Starchitect". One doesn't not even have to be good to be a Starchitect, they just need to be famous as the word implies. I've actually been somewhat excited about the theater school since it was announced (posts even before you joined the forum), but I still think Pelli is a hack. This is a smaller project and a completely different game than highrise architecture so I don't see how you think this has any bearing on his credentials when it comes to highrise design. In fact, this is so different than most of his work that I wouldn't be surprised if it were a design handed off to younger, less shitty, architects in his firm.
