DROP-OFF AND PARKING

The school representative must arrange transportation to and from the Alley Theatre. We do not offer any assistance with loading and unloading buses. We recommend dropping students of in front of the theatre before parking the bus. If students are not able to be dropped in front of the theatre and must unload into the street, , please exercise extreme caution as the streets through and around the Theatre District are very busy. Because of the one-way streets downtown, student groups will need to cross the street to get to Alley Theatre.

THEATRE ETIQUETTE

Visiting the theatre should be an entertaining and educational activity, but it is also one that requires consideration for fellow audience members as well as the actors on stage. Noise disturbs everyone. Knowing what is expected of you as a member of the audience can make the theatre experience more enjoyable for all involved.
 

• Students should be reminded that this is live theatre. Having conversations, disruptive behavior, and sleeping during the performance is unacceptable.
• Cameras or recording devices are prohibited during the performance. Photos should be taken in the lobby, in the theatre before the production starts, or outside the theatre after the performance ends. Anyone caught using recording devices in the theatre must either give up the device during the performance or be removed from the house.
• Discrimination, racism, homophobia, bigotry and hateful language will not be tolerated.
• We reserve the right to remove any disruptive student, teacher, chaperone or group from the theatre.

Educators and chaperones must model appropriate and polite behavior. They should also sit amongst their students during the performance. We look forward to welcoming you to the Alley Theatre.
