St Martin’s Youth Theatre
Small intimate 100 seat theatre. Limited tech/audio equipment so we had to bring in/hire some of our own. Theatre provided staff to help with ticketing and ushering for extra cost. Venue hire alone from 9am-5pm was just under $400.
Peninsula Community Theatre
Organised through the council so communication wasn’t the best.
Very big hall – We fit 350 seats across the hall but potentially could have fit more. We had to put these out ourselves though as it is not pre-installed seating.
Stage was very high but it meant the audience way at the back could still see us really well.
No tech equipment installed at the venue so had to hire tech separately – can recommend Trevor from Cosmic Sound & lighting. E: trevor@aeproductions.com.au PH: 0418 401 083
