Funding, marketing, and promotional materials have been developed and the production staff has prepared the venue, lights, and sound for your utmost enjoyment. Each audience member should be prepared to follow the rules and regulations of the Mann Center for the Performing Arts.

Observing the following list of theater manners will ensure a great performance experience.
