The Cambridge American Stage Tour

As of 2018, the Ensemble hasn't hosted this group recently, although they have been in contact with other MIT groups and the theatre arts department.

Logistics

• They begin planning their tour in early January. Consider contacting them after BOT if you have not yet heard from them.
• Check with Theater Arts as early as possible to see if they can be sponsored. 
• In 2012 they had 3 vans we needed to provide parking for. The parking cost $180 and had to be purchased through Theatre Arts (contact Jay Scheib).

Hosting

• If possible, try to host them all near each other. In 2012, having most of them on 2W worked very well.

Performance

• Make sure they have a hard copy of their liability insurance to work in KLT.
• They will collect suggested donations.
• You may choose to give them a small donation for their performance (We gave $500 in 2012).  You can negotiate taking a cut of/all of their donations if you give them a flat fee. 
• KLT is an ideal space for their performance.

Scheduling

• Plan a cool event for them one night. In 2012, we all went out to see "The Donkey Show" at the Oberon.
• Keep an eye out for parties around campus (ex. EC, BC, etc.). Having a private party is not necessarily ideal. In 2012, the 4E party was better attended than the Fenway party.
• It is probably acceptable to cancel the Sunday rehearsal on the weekend they visit.
