• Provide crew for load-in and set-up of the event
• Provide crew for cleaning and removal of all materials after event is completed
• Leave the space in the same condition in which it was found

ADDITIONAL CONSIDERATIONS

• INSURANCE: Renter must provide a Certificate of Liability which covers the duration of the event, and specifically names The Philadelphia Shakespeare Festival and the renter.
• SALE OF ALCOHOL: The Philadelphia Shakespeare Festival does not possess a liquor license and as a result, there can be no sale of alcoholic beverages in the venue.
