How Do You Behave
at the Theater?

This is very important when you are watching a show. Talking or loud noises can distract the cast or audience members. Do not talk to your neighbors during a show unless the performers ask for audience participation. 

Phones, watches, or any other gadgets can make noises that could interrupt the show. Please turn them off and put them away-the show is for you!

Please do not take pictures of the show! The flash is very distracting and can be harmful to the actors on stage. 

Once you sit down you should remain in your seat until your teacher tells you to get up. 

Watch the show, they are performing for you!

The theatre doesn't like being sticky! Please do not bring snacks or drinks into the theatre during the show.

You should only applaud at the end of the musical numbers, and at the end of the show.

It is important to listen to your teachers even when you are not at school. The ushers and speakers will tell you where to sit and when you can get up.

Do not touch props, costumes or the stage.

If an actor moves into the audience, do not grab or touch them. It can be unsafe and you could scare or harm the performer.

What is a balcony? It is the upper level of the theatre where you can sit and watch the show from above. The balcony is a very nice seat that has a great view of the stage. It is important to behave when you sit at the balcony for your safety and the safety of others. Do not lean over the edge or throw anything to the seats below.
