| LIGHTING REQUIREMENTS: A light plot will be sent at least 1 week prior to the performance date to facilitate any pre-hang possibilities. Rigging points for set and masking information will also be included. We require a scale ground plan of the theatre as well as a section plan.
4 small (PAR 20) light fixtures with floor stands (provided by us) to be installed DS of the apron. We require four female U-ground to “House connectors” (TL-3, stage pin, etc…). MISCELLANEOUS: Some seats may have an obstructed view in certain scenes. We ask to be supplied with a seating plan of the house with exact stage location in order to warn in advance the box office. We require lockable dressing rooms with mirrors, costume racks, toilets and showers. We ask that a key be given to our assigned stage manager. We also need access to an iron and ironing board prior to the performances and wardrobe person and/or laundry facilities after every show as well as during the strike. We ask for water, coffee, fruits, nuts, cheese and juice in the green room as of the first day of set-up. We also ask for two small bottles of water for each performance. We require a set of stairs into the audience located approximately 10 feet (3m) stage left of centre. Please note that juice (in cups with lids) and candy are served to the audience during the performance. Please note that a rope (supplied by us) is hung from the grid to help “Victoria” perform a balance act with her wheelchair. We also require a parking area for our truck and/or minivan. PERFORMANCES:
