Public Events

Policy

• Proposal must be submitted at least 2 weeks in advance!

• PAT Studio Coordinator must be notified of your session/production/event
  The Studio Coordinator must know the date of your session/production/event along with your scheduled setup and breakdown times.

• Proposals with multiple different dates/groups/acts with differing technical requirements should submit a separate Tech Rider (NOT form) for each.
  For example: If you are hosting a production with multiple acts with differing technical requirements, each act should have its own tech rider

• Only submit one proposal per session/production/event
  The proposal form is handled through the Tech Suite helpdesk and allows you to update it after you submit it. You can also include multiple people on the helpdesk ticket.

• Tech Riders must be approved prior to your production
  This prevents unrealistic, unsafe, or poorly thought out shows

• You are still in charge of setting up your show
  The Studio Coordinator will assist with setup of your show, however it will not happen magically. Please arrive early to help set up your performance.  Stay late to assist with strike. Anticipate you and your team/performers will be the last ones out of the venue.
