==Important notes==
In event of a fire NEVER try to tackle the fire if it will endanger you or anyone else.
DO NOT re-enter the building until it is safe.
You must tell the Theatre Manager if there is a fire, no matter how small.

==Committee Rep==

Start of shift
• Get the float out of the grey cash box on top of the safe in the Box Office cupboard.
• Count it into the Box Office and Café tills.
• Make sure you do this only when there is Café and Box Office staff so the money isn't left unattended.

End of shift - Cash up

==Box Office==
• In Newts
- Reporting
- Raw Transaction Report
- Put in correct dates/times
- Save it somewhere you can find it again
- Go and open the file you saved, it will open as an excel file
- Widen the necessary columns until everything is readable
- Print it out, making sure you print to the Samsung and in Landscape format.
- Delete the file you saved as it is not needed.

• Cash up sheet
- On computer desktop
- Cash up template
- Fill this in (on the computer, it will automatically add stuff up for you), fairly self explanatory!
- Print to the Samsung
- DO NOT save the changes
- Get relevant people to sign it

• Money bags
- separate the money into enough money bags so that they fit in the hole in the top of the safe.
- Include a bit of paper with the show name/date/bag 1 of 1 etc/total amount in all bags.

• Put the Report and Cash up sheet in the grey box on top of the safe.
• Put the money bags in the safe.
• If you have been asked to keep a float out put the float in the grey box and put a note in the other bags that they are minus x amount for float.

==Café==

• Press X1/Z1 then 9 then Cash. This produces a big receipt and has the z-reading on it.
• Count the money and fill out a cash up sheet (can be printed from the box office computer). Remember to deduct expenses (milk etc) and include the receipt in the money bag.
• Enter the z-reading onto the cash-up sheet and calculate the discrepancy between what you have and what you should have.
• Sign the sheet and put the money into money bags along with a piece of paper saying café takings, the total amount, the date, the show and how many bags of money there are.

In Event of fire

• Make sure the Box Office has called the Fire Brigade
• If there is a disabled person in the building please be aware of how you will evacuate them in an emergency and be responsible for their safety.

During the show
• Count the ticket stubs and put them into a money bag. Include a bit of paper with details of show name, date, ticket numbers and prices. Put the total number of tickets on it and pin the bag on the notice board in the box office. In event of a fire this will tell you how many people are in the auditorium.

Ending the show
• If people are being slow leaving the auditorium ask them politely to leave so we can get ready for the next show/close the building.

• Make sure the doors to the auditorium are open.
• Remain in the auditorium until everyone has been evacuated. Check the rest of the building if it is safe to do so.
• If there is a fire blocking any of the escape routes, position a member of staff to prevent members of the public endangering themselves.
• You should always be aware of how many members of the public are in the auditorium by checking the number of ticket stubs.
• Once everyone is assembled outside do a headcount of members of the public and staff members. The Stage Manager and Tech Manager should be counting cast and crew. Check that they have everyone.
