Front of House

Front of House (FOH) refers to the ticketing and ushering systems and personnel. This is led and coordinated by Leigh, who generally acts as the Front of House Manager. The stage manager interacts with Front of House to give them relevant information about the show, and ensure performances run smoothly for patrons. 


Information sheet

At least one week prior to the first performance, complete a FOH information sheet and email it to Leigh and Stephen. This sheet should cover all information needed by Front of House.


For performances 

Before opening the house (letting the audience in), Leigh or the Front of House Manager will need clearance from the Stage Manager. Prior to the first performance, discuss the opening time with Leigh. 

At the designated opening time, find the FOH Manager and give clearance. If you are not ready to open the house at the designated time, please let Leigh know how long the delay will be, and contact him again when you are ready.

Leigh will knock on the bio box door to indicate that you may start the show. Do not start the show before getting "the knock."
