Got
questions? We have answers.
What
Is Your Inclement Weather Policy?
It
is our desire to complete every performance, and we will make every
effort to start, continue, and finish each show despite light
rainfall or breezy conditions.
In
the event of heavier rains or winds, however, we may delay the start
of the show, or the completion of the show, in the hope that the
weather will clear. Announcements will be made informing audience
members of "holds." We may also pause to take precautions
to ensure the safety and health of the performers and crew.
If
severe storms are likely or imminent, shows may be moved to an indoor
location or, if necessary, cancelled. To find out if a show has been
moved or cancelled prior to showtime, please check our website -- www.flatwatershakespearecompany.org --and
Facebook or Instagram accounts; you can also call our Information
Line at 402-413-1586.
Do
I Need a Reservation?
No
reservations are needed. However, audience members are strongly
encouraged to arrive 30 minutes before the performance to ensure a
good place. This is particularly true if you plan on using a blanket,
as space is limited.
Is
There a Cost to Attend?
No!
Flatwater Shakespeare Company offers the summer touring production
FREE of charge. A $10 donation is suggested, but everyone is welcome
whether you can make a contribution or not. For some alternate
locations due to weather, there may be parking costs.
How
Long is the Show?
The
show runs 75 minutes, with no intermission. All performances begin at
7:00 p.m.
Is
the Show “Family Friendly?”
Yes!
Our summer production is family friendly as the informal park setting
is perfect for children as well as adults to have a taste of the
Bard’s wonderful characters, exciting action, and brilliant
language. Past audiences have included everyone from babies to people
in their 80s, people from all walks of life, and even some pets.
You
Mean Pets Are Sometimes Allowed?
Furry
family members are welcome to attend any of the park performances
with you! We request that pets be kept on a leash. Owners must clean
up after their pets.
Are
Bathrooms Available?
Yes!
Modern bathroom facilities are available at the performances at
Wyuka. Some park locations have bathroom facilities. Other locations
will have port-a-potties available.
Do
I Need to Bring My Own Chair or Blanket?
Chairs
are provided at the performances held at Wyuka Cemetery. Audience
members should bring their own chairs and blankets for the
performances at the park locations and at James Arthur Vineyards.
May
I Bring Food and Beverages?
Yes!
At the park locations audience members are welcome to bring in
snacks, even a picnic supper, for you and your family. We merely ask
that all trash items are disposed of after the show so that we leave
the parks in good condition.
Please
note that alcoholic beverages cannot be brought to any of the
locations. However, James Arthur Vineyards will have wine available
for purchase at the performance held at their facility, as well as
soft drinks and water.
