Basics of Theatre Etiquette to share with students:
We're excited that you'll be joining us for a show at NCT. Theatre is live,
so watching it different from watching a movie. The actors on stage can see
and hear you just as you can see and hear them. Because of this, you play
a special role in helping to tell the story. As an audience member, you have
both opportunities to participate and responsibilities to consider.
-If something in the show makes you want to laugh, clap, play, sing or
dance, please do!
-Your reactions make the play fun for the actors and the audience (The
actors can hear you.)
-However, please stay in your seat, and do not talk to your friends during
the performance. Extra noise can distract the actors and make it difficult
for
them to perform (Again, the actors can hear you.)
-When you arrive at the theatre, an usher will help you to your seat.
Right before the show is about to begin, the lights in the theatre (“house
lights”) will go off. Don't panic! This happens so you can see
the stage.
