 Examples
of Theaters Using TicketStage
Arlington Friends of the Drama Theater (AFD), a 200 seat
theatre, is now into their 3rd season using TicketStage. Over 50%
of ticket sales are now being directly booked on-line by patrons.
Patrons really like selecting their seats and find TicketStage easy
to use. AFD is using TicketStage's membership feature, providing
AFD subscribers the ability to book the performance and seats they
want on-line as each show is opened. TicketStage recognizes each
subscriber and automatically debits their account. AFD is booking
all orders through TicketStage and is using it as their box-office
system.
Marblehead Little Theatre (MLT), a 500 seat theatre, is
now into their 2nd season using TicketStage. Last year patrons booked
27% of all tickets sold using Ticketstage, a huge success for a
first time usage. Patrons found TicketStage both easy and fast to
use. They really like the convenience of selecting their seats and
the immediate confirmation of their selections. Last season MLT
used TicketStage to book internet orders and used their existing
system to book all other orders. This season MLT is using TicketStage
to book all orders.
Walnut Hill School (WNH) is internationally recognized for
its intensive training in the arts with a college preparatory academic
curriculum. Walnut Hill produces a number of shows and concerts
each year at its Keiter Center (350 seats) and it's Blackbox Theatre
(66 seats). WNH is into their 2nd season using TicketStage as their
box-office system handling all ticket ordering. The WNH Box-Office
Mgr commented, "We are amazed as to how easy it was to transition
to TicketStage. It is so much easier to use than our previous system".
WNH is taking advantage of TicketStage's multi-venue and multi-ticket
type features. For each performance WNH selects the venue and the
type of ticket sales, general admission or reserved seating.
Colonial Chorus Players (CCP) typically gives performances
at 2 venues for each show they produce. One venue is about 400 seats
setup for reserved seating. The second venue is about 300 seats
setup for general admission. Selling both general admission and
reserved seat tickets on the Internet was a key CCP requirement.
TicketStage's unique mulit-venue and multi-ticket type features
makes this easy to do. CCP is using TicketStage to book all orders,
Internet and Box-Office.
