Performing Arts Society of Redding

General Concert Etiquette

Please observe the following during PAS concerts:

1. Refrain from talking, whispering, or making any extraneous noise. If children become noisy, quietly escort them outside.

2. Doors open at 7 pm, and concerts begin at 7:30 pm; you are encouraged to arrive soon after doors open. Latecomers will be shown to a seat during applause.

3. Turn off or silence electronic devices. Photography, videography, and recording are strictly prohibited. The PAS Production Team invites you to view our recorded concerts on our YouTube Channel.

4. Food and drink, other than properly bottled water in a sealed, watertight container, are not permitted.

5. Many pieces of music have several sections or movements. Reserve applause until the final movement has concluded.

6. If you must leave the concert hall, do so quietly to avoid interrupting the concert.
