Rentals
Alumnae’s home for more than forty years has been the old Firehall No. 4 at 70 Berkeley Street and Adelaide. Built in 1900, this handsome building was renovated and restored by the Alumnae in 1972, and contains the fully equipped Mainstage and our intimate Studio theatres, as well as a workshop, backstage and lobby space, and a benign ghost.
Our Mainstage and Studio performance spaces are frequently rented by other theatre companies and by film and television crews for location shoots.
With the signed contract, we require payment of 50% of the rental fee + 50% of the cost of the rental supervisor’s hours + 100% of the damage deposit. The balance (50% of the rental fee + 50% of the cost of the rental supervisor’s hours) is due no later than one week before you load in.

MAINSTAGE
The Alumnae Mainstage is a traditional 140-seat black-box theatre, fully air-conditioned, and wheelchair-accessible. Rentals include lighting and sound equipment, and use of the dressing rooms, lobby, and box office. Box office staff and technical staff are not included.
Stage dimensions are:
width: 32'6"
