Times
Time for set up: 1 hour
Length of show: 50 minutes
Question period: 10 minutes
Take down time: 45 minutes
We need use of the performance area for two hours and 45 minutes. Please rearrange any activities scheduled for that time, and have the space cleared for our arrival.

Seating Arrangement
Our set will extend 20 feet across, and is 16 feet deep. We’ll help the teachers to seat their students. The students should sit cross-legged on the floor, in order of age. This is easiest to accomplish if the students arrive in order of age, youngest to eldest. The youngest group could arrive about 5 minutes prior to the performance time. You can see a PDF file of our seating plan for schools here, and our public show seating here.

Sight lines are important for this show—children shouldn’t sit too far to the side. We’ll set chairs along the sides to mark out where the children should sit; teachers can use these chairs to sit beside their classes.

Noises
Please turn off all bells, fans, and air conditioners for the performance.

Access to Performance Area
We need to back our van up to the door which gives the closest access to the performance area. Please arrange to have gates and doors unlocked, and to keep the parking space free for us. If there is no easy access to the performance area, we’d appreciate it if three or four people could help us to unload and load our equipment.
