Theatre is a communication between audience and actor. Actors love to hear the audiences respond authentically. Laughing, crying, applauding and even cheering is all part of the experience. For those new to theatre, audiences applaud at the end of the act before the interval and also at the end of the show, when actors take their bows.

Smoking

Please observe all No Smoking notices. Presentation House Theatre is a smoke-free venue.

Talking during a performance

The acoustics of our theatre are such that talking or whispering during a performance is likely to be heard on stage. Please refrain from talking during the performance.
