Box Office

The Box Office is the domain of the FoH Manager but require to be cleaned and have the floor painted.

The other "Box office Cupboard" contains the safe and old ticket books, it should be kept locked at all times and has two locks on it. It is more useful for locking things up during term time as the cleaning cupboard is rarely locked (otherwise people don't clean!). The pyro and gun boxes are kept in here currently{is this true?}.

The panic alarm button can be found under the box office and the reset button is beside the box office light switches.

The sound system for FoH runs through an amp in the box office cupboard where there is a DJ mixer which selects between the feed from the tech box and a CD player in the cupboard. The FoH microphone connects into the mixer but it’s easier to have a loud voice than to faff with it.
