Peterborough #1

IMPORTANT PROP NOTE
*Please make arrangements for props to be removed after your dances. There is no prop storage space available in the Theatre.

IMPORTANT CHANGEROOM NOTE
*Please use the Peterborough Inn & Suites Hotel changeroom space as much as possible to alleviate changeroom space in the Theatre.

ADDRESS

• ShowPlace Performance Centre, 290 George Street North, Peterborough, ON K9J 6Y8
• The building will open 1 hour prior to the first performance of the day

STAGE DIMENSIONS

• approximately 30’ deep x 38’ wide

PARKING

• There is no parking directly linked to the ShowPlace Theatre.  The ShowPlace website has parking options listed: https://www.showplace.org/visit

• Please leave adequate time for parking in the event lots are full.

LOADING DOCK

• Located off of Water St. (1 block east of George Street).  The dock loads directly onto the stage.  All large props can only be loaded right before a performance.  The dock is 18” above pavement, 94” high and 93” wide (with no centre post).

PROPS

• Please ensure you have adequate staff to prep your props for easy load-in and load-off the stage.  Heavy items should be on dollies to avoid scratching the dance floor.  Props can be pre-assembled in the loading dock and then wheeled onto the stage.  We want to keep to our time-schedule so dancers are dancing as scheduled.
• Props must be removed immediately after performances as there is no prop storage space backstage.
• All smaller props must be brough in the front doors (back doors will be locked for the safety of the dancers).
• Only bring in props during the break before your performance and remove them once you are done.

Thank you everyone for your combined efforts as we know this takes a lot of time and coordination!!

DRESSING ROOMS

• **Dressing room space is LIMITED and is for everyone to Share**  Dancers should come prepared (with make-up done) so unnecessary time is not spent in these rooms.  Once they are done performing, it would be helpful if dancers removed their items to make room for new performers.

• We do not assign the rooms as it is more efficient for everyone to find free space.  Please do not “claim” a room for your Studio and remain respectful of all participants' needs to change. 

• Two rooms at the Peterborough Inn & Suites Hotel have been rented for additional dressing room space. The Peterborough Inn is a 30sec walk from the Theatre at 312 George St. N.  This is a great place for dancers who do not have quick changes and is highly encouraged to alleviate the congestion in the Theatre Change Rooms.

• As a reminder – it is not appropriate for males to be in the girls’ dressing areas.  They will have their own assigned dressing room which can be accessed from backstage on the side of Stage Right. 

REHEARSAL AREA

• The main dressing room area will be split for rehearsal.
• This area is very limited and we thank you in advance for sharing.

SHINE SHOP

• Our Shine Shop will be in full operation to get your Shine Dance Merchandise.  Please note that we will be accepting only credit or debit cards -- we will not be accepting cash.
