ONE ACT TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS AND RULES NOW
AVAILABLE
We now have one-act technical specifications and rules available
for all three spaces at the Tampa Bay Performing Arts Center. Please note
that for the duration of the Festival, the space formerly known as the Rehearsal
Hall will be known as the Don Jones Theatre.
TBPAC Rules
Clothing:
We ask that ALL students dress as stagehands. The students should wear shoes
that cover the whole foot. So no open toes, sling/open back shoes, or
sandals. Please no overly baggy clothing, skirts, or long hair hanging
loose.
**The loading dock supervisor has the right to ask a student to sit out during
loading and unloading of the truck if he/she feels that a students clothing is a
potential danger.
Directing trucks: Students are welcome to direct their school's
truck into the loading dock. But the students should NEVER be on the
same level as the trucks. The students should direct the trucks form the
upper level of the dock.
Conduct in the building: No one at any time should run anywhere in the
building. If there is an emergency find a host or someone else with a
radio (like TBPAC security) to contact the person you need.
-The Don Jones Theater is not sound proof. As a courtesy to those performing in
the Don Jones Theater and those in the down stairs offices we ask that volume in
the hallways be kept to a minimum.
We ask that you follow these rules closely to avoid problems and injuries that
we have had in the past.
We hope that everyone has a wonderful experience during his or her visit.
PARKING AT THE TBPAC
-All One Act and Main stage trucks are to park at the bagged meters
closest to the TBPAC.
-Any buses carrying students are to park at the bagged meters closest to the
Holiday Inn.
-Please DO NOT block the stage door or loading dock with your truck or bus.
-Please have a large sign with the name of your school and your show displayed
somewhere on your truck so that a host can read it from the sidewalk.
-Your driver needs to be with the vehicle before the One Act competition and
immediately following it.
-A truck is only to move when a host indicates for that truck to move.
-Once a truck has unloaded or loaded it needs to move out of the dock as quickly
as possible to make room for the next truck.
-NO PERSONAL vehicles should park at the bagged meters during the festival
unless it is carrying set pieces.
-Personal vehicles can find parking at the Holiday Inn, the Times Lot, and the
Poe Garage. These places DO charge a fee for parking.
