Good afternoon,
What we would like to do is print out a field on our ticket, that tells the constituent which side of the house to enter on. (i.e. Left Stage, Right Stage, Center). I believe that prior to version 11 the only field that could be used for this is Additional Seat Text 1 and 2. Data that is pulled from TR_SECTION. (Currently we use that field for other information).
The issue for us is that we have one Orchestra line -- in TR_SECTION. (to use that field we need to make 3 lines TR_SECTION (orchestra for left, right and center). This would also have to have us change facilities, and zones, and using this table would require a mass change across many other areas of tessitura.
I wanted to inquire, has any one seen any updates to version 11, that will help with identifying a field (that isn't in TR_SECTION) or hard code some logic on the ticket, that will return 'left' if the seat falls into some criteria? Do we then need a custom table?
Does anyone else have any other suggestions to make this work?
Thanks,
-Lisa
Hi Lisa,
We use Short Dec to indicate Left, Right or Centre. On our tickets, we say LT5 for aisle 5 on the left and RT5 for aisle 5 on the right. In our other theatre with no aisles, it just says LT, RT or CE, so Centre section, Left Section or Right Section.
We use Additional Text to indicate if it's Orchestra, Balcony or Boxes.
