Re: RAT In-House Ticketing (not an aesthetic thread)

[ActorsGng1@aol.com]

Hey everyone,

I have a few questions for those theatres who do in-house ticketing (vs. 
using a ticketing service):

Do you just use a voicemail line which instructs patrons to leave their name, 
number, and date and number of tickets?  Do you automatically call back to 
confirm or just tell them to assume it's confirmed unless they hear otherwise?

Do you accept credit cards?  Do you have patrons leave the number and then 
run it through or do you do that at the door?  Do you accept credit cards at 
the door or just cash/checks?  

What credit card service do you use? How's it working?

Please add how many seats you have.

I know these are a lot of questions, but we're considering doing our own 
ticketing and I just wanted to get an idea of what theatres are doing and 
patrons are used to.

Thanks,
