If the director is proud that the staging and dancing look just like the Broadway show, go with the flow.... but that's a whole other topic... sounds like you've meet the directors at our local community theater...

I must apologize for not giving a frame of reference with that post... We are a small fine arts center in a county of only 22,000. We seat 320 and our stage is 31' x 27' proscenium type. The nearest sound and lighting contractors are an hour away. So really my space is not even in the same...

If you see him do something that puts a patron or fellow crew member in danger, then tell him to leave. If he is a hazard to facility equipment, tell him to leave. If all he does is a poor job at FoH, there is not much you can do. Are there any policies about consumption on the property? I...

How about Atlanta? Or maybe the triad of North Carolina?

I know I will catch some grief for this... But when they are unpaid actors in community theater I don't see any problem referring to them as "acties" if they insist on calling my crew techies. However, since we are doing less and less community theater here at our arts center (... and more and...

This is something we have been discussing here at my theater for several years and it's a hard concept for some board members to grasp. It's a strange industry we work in. You hire a group to do a show, and they tell you what they need, and if you don't have it, you have to rent it, or come to...

It hard to try to rule against food or drink in the booth when it's my mini fridge in the booth... And microwave... And yes microwave is not run from 1 hour pre show to end of show... It's unplugged just in case...

I've had a few of those "..give me a quote on a show that will happen... sometime...somewhere... and I need it in an hour" The first thing you should do (something that has bit me before) is state that the quote has a time limit. 30 days, 90 days or something like that. I did this for a group...

Wow. Thank you everyone for the comments, very good reading. It has helped reinforced my thoughts, in that I have gone about my project of implementing a new sound system the correct way (abet a little too slow) at my performing Arts Center. It has taken me almost two years of talking to...

... And in this show that is a real possibility!!I will not go into the poor performance... I got to work at 1pm and spent three hours looking for "The Bat". Never did find it... @Les didn't tell anyone anything and made a point not to be too available for questions. Though earlier I did...
