Stage or Floor Space
Workshop performances are more effective when presented on a full stage
with proper wings and curtains. However, a gym floor, community centre, or mall
area is adequate providing that the "performance space" is a minimum
of approximately 6 x 6 meters (20ft x 20ft).
Sound System
We would prefer to use the sound system of the hosting school or
community if it is adequate. However, Workshop does have a system that can be
transported, set up and used if needed.
Lighting
There is no doubt that a good lighting system enhances the performance,
but limitations in this area should not be a cause for concern; Workshop does
have lights that can be used if needed.
Dressing Rooms
If there is not adequate space in the wings of a regular stage, then
male and female dressing rooms (or school bathrooms) within easy access to the
stage or performance area is sufficient.
After the Performance
Workshop members enjoy answering questions from the audience. If
requested prior to our visit, and time permits, members may be invited into
classrooms or break into groups for further discussions.
Financial Responsibility &
Transportation
To help offset the expenses, a set honorarium fee and travel expenses is
most appreciated from the hosting school, institution, or community responsible
for the arrangements involved with a Workshop visit. Details can be discussed with the Workshop Co-ordinator
