Shout out to our Front Of House team. Nobody better at what they do. It takes a huge effort to make a night of shows run smoothly. From the box office to the greeters, ushers, bartenders and managers, every step of the way presents both a challenge and opportunity to set our audiences up to have an fantastic experience at our theater. More often then not it goes incredibly well, so well in fact that no one takes notice. It’s when things go awry, which in live events and entertainment it has a tendency to do, that our team really shines. Thank you to all of the amazing people who make the night happen! #customerservice #foh #hospitality
