Two things the Black plan adds on top of everything in Bold.

Your own public portal

  • Your productions and programme, with a calendar link
  • Documents to download
  • Your own venues, if you have them

See an example → Read more about the portal

The public portal of a demo theatre company, with a menu for home, program and documents, a cover photo, a short introduction with a contact button, and the start of its list of productions.

Your own venues, planned and bookable

Do you have your own hall, studio or rehearsal room? Plan rehearsals and performances in your venues side by side, and let others request them through your public portal.

  • See every venue side by side, per week or month
  • Requests come in through your portal and by mail
  • A page per venue on your portal with photos, technical info, downloads and availability
