What are the different options for calling your ushers? We currently use SignMeUp which uses their email address. We are looking to see if their is a better option?

We are not an equity house and I don't see us ever going equity.

The theatre I am working at is undergoing a management change. As we all know with management change comes renovations and upgrades. One of those upgrades is a much needed upgrade to our dressing room area. The new management company has brought in an interior designer to help make the space...

I work in a historic theatre that our contract states has a very strict 95db c-weighted level that is measured from the center of the balcony. I try to be very understanding and ask that as long as they try to maintain a reasonable db in the 95db area and aren't pushing 103-105db and peaking at...

Each set unit will probably not have more than 15-20' of LED tape. I don't have all the numbers in front of me so I can't answer the load question. Show is only about an hour and half long but I assume it will only run about 15 minutes of that total in different chases and flashes. Most of the...

I am working on a project where we are using 12v LED tape to light some moving set pieces. I'm 90% sure I have everything figured out but the power. Getting power to them remotely without running a power cable is proving to be a challenge. We need something that is reasonably priced and...

After a few more attempts I was able to get in touch with someone listed on the Audex website and was informed that Audex went out of business in 2016. So, at this point it looks like the best option is just to replace our old Audex system.

Does anybody know of any companies that are dealers/suppliers of Audex Assisted Listening systems? We need some replacement parts for ours and are trying to have them replaced before having to spend a lot of money on replacing our entire assisted listening system. We have tried contacting the...

At my theatre we have a harness we use when climbing our house lighting booms. I've been here just over 6 years and inherited the harness with the theatre. I feel like the harness is too big for me and my master electrician. When I put it on and tighten it up all of the straps are significantly...

We had a patron come in this morning and drop off this catalog and one other because she thought we might like it. She was right.

Thanks for all the suggestions. We have looked at most of the companies that were suggested and they loop back to Caddy Products. We have a quote from them, but for a couple of different reasons we were seeing if we could find anymore. One being our city purchasing department tends to want 3...

Picture of our seats. not sure why it wants to rotate it.

Van, I have sent an email to American Seating the manufacture of our seats. Waiting for a response. We assume we will have to retro fit something, but we are having trouble finding companies that even sell cup holders for theatre seats.

It has been decided that we need to add cup holders to our historic auditorium seats. We are having trouble finding any companies that sell cup holders for theatres. Would anybody out there have any suggestions? Any help big or small would be a big help.

We bring in a little bit of everything. Dance shows, concerts, musicals, straight plays, symphonies, and small Broadway tours
