Possibly Asked Questions:
How do I get tickets?
There are no tickets. Our shows are open to the public.
How much are tickets?
Like we said, there are no tickets. Our shows are free. However, if you wish to contribute to the success of this and subsequent productions, we will be accepting donations at the venue.
Do I need to make a reservation?
Not necessary. The grounds will be open to arriving patrons shortly before 7:30pm. The invisible curtain will rise on Love’s Labour’s Lost at sundown, around 8:30pm. So the earlier you can arrive, the better your choice of available lawnspace. Patrons are encouraged to bring blankets or small tarps for seating and picnic dinners for eating.
Also, for the sake of everyone’s enjoyment, we will have a designated area for those patrons that bring lawn chairs. We want people to be comfortable without obscuring anyone else’s view.
What about parking?
The City of Roswell has mandated that parking will begin behind the blue barn at Barrington. Parking actually *in* the main parking lot will be prohibited except for cast members and crew. Once the area behind the barn fills under the expert direction of the police department, you will be directed elsewhere to park. We have been told that there is parking available at the square, which is well within reasonable walking distance.
So this is an outdoor production?
Yes. Right on the back lawn of Barrington Hall. While our cast has encountered far fewer mosquitos than one might expect, we advise patrons to arrive prepared with insect repellent, just in case. Also, citronella candles work wonders.
What happens if it rains?
If it rains prior to curtain, then we will proceed with the show, delayed only to make up for lost prep time. If it rains during the show, then we will hold and determine if we are dealing with a small shower or something larger. Spring showers in Georgia can be very brief.
In the end, weather is the one great unknown of outdoor theatre. We are beholden to it, but we will make our best effort to carry on.
