What are your ticket prices? $25

What is your refund policy?

We have a NO REFUND policy unless we are forced to cancel the show. Please do not ask!

Do you have a dress code?

We believe theater should be accessible to everybody, so we do not have or enforce a dress code, but clothes and shoes must be worn.

That said, we generally recommend people wear nice clothes or date night attire to shows. It’s a nice way of showing respect to the performers for their work, and it’s what most of our audience members wear.

We also recommend bringing a light jacket or sweater. We tend to keep the auditorium relatively cool throughout the year for our performers’ comfort and safety (it can get extremely hot up there under the stage lights).

Can I bring my child?

That depends on the show and your child’s comfort level. Most of our shows are geared toward adult audiences, although we have family friendly shows as well. We try to be transparent about show content and will label a show as “adult” if it contains adult language, situations, loud noises, etc. If you have any specific questions or concerns about a show, please feel free to contact us.

Is the theatre handicapped accessible?

Our auditorium has limited seating for patrons in wheelchairs. We do not have risers or stairs, and seating is general. Please arrive a little early so that our ushers can assist you with finding the best seating location.

When is your season?

Our theater seasons generally run from October to May and usually include 4 shows, plus any special events. Shows for the upcoming season are announced in the fall, and general admission tickets for each show go on sale around six weeks to a month before opening night. Check this website and our Facebook page for updates for each show and to purchase tickets.

Where are you located?

Our shows are performed at the Chaman Auditorium, which is located on Highway 98 (Avenue E) between 12th and 14th Street (also called Couch Wagoner Blvd). You can access the parking lot from Highway 98. 

If you are using a GPS device or smartphone to find us, type in 155 Avenue E, Apalachicola, FL 32320.

Are actors and crew paid?

No. Our performers, crew members, and designers are volunteer members of our community. They generously donate their skills, talent, and time to our theater. Many of our performers have chosen steady day jobs in fields ranging from teaching to government work to retail to tech. They come here to exercise their artistic sides.

Are auditions precast?

We strongly discourage pre-casting amongst our directors. Our auditions are open to anyone who wants to come out and try. Casting for each show is at the sole discretion of the director of that particular production.

What is expected of me as an actor or crew member?

While performing in a show or working backstage is great fun, we do ask that cast and crew abide by a few simple rules. We feel it’s good to know what’s expected of you before you commit to a show. 

Cast and crew are expected to attend all rehearsals set by the director. We generally rehearse at least 3 times a week (but this is up to the director, it could be more or less frequent), with the exception of “tech week”, which is the week before the show. During tech week, all cast and crew are expected to attend every night that week. And of course, you must be able to attend each performance. 

As an actor, you are expected to learn your lines in a timely manner. Your director will let you know when it is time to be “off book”. 

We also expect everyone to be respectful and courteous to your fellow actors and crew members at all times.
