Performing at the max
At The MAX, we pride ourselves in providing the best theatre-quality experience
for our customers and performers – from our incomparable, state-of-the-art light and
sound system to our professional DJs and lighting engineers.
HOSTS
Looking to book a show? Contact the Show Director.
Our production team is here to help with your upcoming show! To help you plan a flawless production, follow these guidelines:
-
10-15 Performers:
Shows must be kept under 2 hours in length. Saturday shows have 24 slots in the line-up (including raffles/auctions). Sunday shows have 30 slots. -
Promotion:
We will create the promotional graphics for your show. Please send the title/theme of your show to Marketing Director Shannon Barry through Facebook Messenger. We like to post the Facebook event on our page at least 8 weeks prior to the show date. -
Set Design:
It’s never too early to start planning your set! The Max has a selection of Mylar in various colors available for use in your set design, but also be thinking about what props or table decorations you can incorporate. It is your responsibility to create and install the design during rehearsal the day of show (Noon to 1PM). A spectacular and creative design sets the stage for what the audience can expect. Really try to create a theater-quality design that draws on the theme and makes the audience realize they are about to see a spectacular show: suspend props above the stage or set them around the steps, drape Mylar in interesting configurations, decorate tabletops – the possibilities are endless. If you need help with ideas, Show Director is available for consultation (tips are appreciated).
