HOUSE RULES
At Cambrian Players, “Theatre For The Love of It” isn’t just a statement, it’s our mission to continue a long-standing tradition of providing a community driven space where everyone—patrons, performers, and volunteers—is welcomed to fully participate and deserves to be treated with respect. This is our commitment to you and we ask you to help us uphold these values and expectations in all of your interactions with Cambrian Players.
We believe that…
- All are welcome here, and each person is empowered and encouraged to fully engage with our work.
- Everyone is a human being, equally deserving of respect, regardless of race, gender, sexuality, background or level of privilege.
- Anti-racism—the intentional and conscious effort to combat racial prejudice and systemic and structural racism—is an ongoing and active practice, and we must all stand against oppression and marginalization of all kinds.
- Discomfort is often productive, but cruelty never is.
We will not tolerate…
- Insulting or discriminatory speech towards anyone.
- Unwanted invasion of another person’s physical space.
- Abusive or harassing behaviour.
- Ignoring or talking over volunteers who are trying to assist you.
- Creating a hostile environment for fellow audience members, performers, or volunteers.
- Disrespect of or damage to our theatre or other facilities.
- Outside Food or Drink
- Patrons under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
We invite you to…
- Assume positive intent and expect the same assumption in return.
- Enjoy our art with your whole self—laugh, clap, cry, have reactions!—and embrace your fellow audience members’ reactions in turn. Remember that your experience is shared with the rest of the audience.
- Make a deliberate effort to confront your own biases, and partner with us to help make Cambrian Players a welcoming space for everyone. We’re all learning!
- Help us create a positive community and a culture of collaboration.
We are glad you’re here! Thank you for being a part of the Cambrian Players community as we work together to provide Theater for the Love of It!
