BAX may also recommend an additional BAX contracted crew member, at an additional fee, to act as as stage hand or board operator if it becomes apparent that additional crew members are needed.

• A production meeting with BAX TD A production meeting with BAX TD will be scheduled no less than one month prior to the first performance. Additional meetings will be scheduled as needed based on the needs of the production.

ADDITIONAL STAFFING PROVIDED BY RENTER:

The contracting renter is required to provide a stage manager who knows the production and will call light and sound cues during the show. The stage manager must be present at all Techs, Dress, and Performances.

Tech/Dress rehearsals are generally on Wednesday and/or Thursday evenings between 6:00-10:00pm with some availability also on Friday mornings/afternoons. (Theater reserved only).

Our typical format is a Friday and Saturday 8:00pm show with the Theater and Studio C reserved from 6:00-10:00pm. We can also offer one-night rentals and other variations pending availability.

All times booked for both Technical Rehearsals and Performance days must be approved by the TD. It is up to the discretion of the TD if sufficient time has been reserved based on the performance’s technical needs.

There is a refundable security deposit required up front, to be returned to the renter, provided the space is vacated in a timely manner and in good condition. The contracting renter is required to sweep/mop the space or arrange for the appropriate crew after each Tech and Performance day.

The theater is only reserved when a NON-REFUNDABLE deposit of half the contract amount is received. Cancellations or schedule changes received at least 2 months in advance will be rescheduled at no charge. If cancelled less than 2 months in advance, all fees are forfeited. The final balance is due no later than one month prior to the tech or performance.
