Are You Ready To Visit

The Society of the Four Arts?

What does it mean when the lights blink in the hallway outside of an auditorium?

  1. The theater is trying to save electricity
  2. There is a problem with the light bulbs
  3. It is a special effect to make the theater seem interesting
  4. It is time to go into the theater and sit down

The answer is D. The lights blinking means that the performance is going to start in just a few minutes. Your teacher or chaperone will lead you to your seats so you don’t miss anything.

When should you go to the restroom when at a performance?

  1. During the quiet parts
  2. During the loud parts
  3. When there are only a couple of people on stage
  4. Before or after the performance so I don’t disturb anyone

The answer is D. Even if you try to be very quiet, getting up in the middle of the performance bothers the people sitting around you and can distract the performers. Try to go to the bathroom before or after a performance so you can concentrate on what’s happening on stage.

25

When is it OK to talk during a performance?

  1. When my friends are talking
  2. When I think of something funny
  3. If it’s loud enough that the performer can’t hear me talking.
  4. When the performer asks the audience a question

The answer is D. Remaining quiet unless asked a question shows the performer that you care about what they are doing or saying, and helps the people who are sitting around you hear the program. Even if your friends are talking, it is good theater manners to remain quiet.

What should you do with food and drink when attending a performance at The Four Arts?

  1. Sneak it in under my jacket
  2. Ask my teacher to hold it
  3. Hide it in a plant or behind a chair
  4. Leave it in a safe place, such as the bus or the car, and enjoy it later.

The answer is D. The Four Arts doesn’t allow food or drinks in the auditorium at all. Sneaking or hiding food is not allowed either.

NO

FOOD

26

After the performance, sometimes the performers take questions from the audience. If you are called on, what should you do?

  1. Stand Up
  2. Speak Slowly
  3. Speak Very Loudly
  4. All of the Above

The answer is D. If the performer asks “Does anyone have any questions?” by all means, raise your hand! If you get called on, speaking slowly, loudly and standing up helps the performer and the audience hear your question.
