Up to four parallel parking spaces along 5th street are available to productions using the theatre. For presented events, the tech crew will cone off spaces in advance. Four additional spaces are available one block west on Park
Ave. Additional bus and truck parking is available about three blocks from the theatre. Truck loading may be done in the alley but the truck must be moved when loading is complete.
LAUNDRY / 1 HOUR DRY CLEANING:
One-hour dry cleaning service is available within a short drive from the theatre.

LOCATION: The Admiral Theatre is located in the heart of downtown Bremerton, approximately 90 minutes from Seattle-Tacoma Int’l Airport. Auto and Passenger Ferry service to downtown Seattle runs every 1-2 hours through the day with less service during evenings and weekends.It is a 60-minute ferry ride; the ferry terminal is approximately .3 miles (.5km) from the theatre, a short walk or drive. Be warned that many GPS and online mapping programs do not take the ferry system into account properly and may give poor directions. Ferry times and fees can be found at www.wsdot.wa.gov/ferries/Schedule. The ferry terminals for this route are Bremerton and Seattle (Main).
DIRECTIONS: See attachment A for area maps and route.
Due to the unique location of Bremerton on the Kitsap Peninsula, nearly all travelers not familiar with the area will be coming from the South or East. In most cases, the best route is to navigate from Interstate 5, but depending on timing and schedules, it can be faster for those already in or North of Seattle to use the ferry system. Please contact PSM Gail Walls if you think the ferry system may be a faster route for you. Bremerton is just a short drive from Seattle, the Sea-Tac Airport, and Tacoma via I-5 to Hwy 16 West, to Hwy 3 North. From I-5 take exit 132 to merge onto WA-16. Continue 27.4 mi. (44km) and then keep right, as Hwy16 becomes WA-3 W. After 3.2 mi. (5.2km) more, take the Kitsap Way/WA-310 Exit from Hwy 3, and turn right (East). Kitsap Way becomes Sixth Street as you enter the Central Business District. Keep right to continue straight on 6th and then turn right on Pacific Avenue. The Admiral Theatre is on the corner of Fifth and Pacific. Alternatively, take the ferry from Downtown Seattle to Bremerton, stay in the left lane and turn left on Burwell. Turn right at the light on Pacific Avenue, and the Admiral Theatre will be just ahead on the left.
TIME ZONE: Pacific Standard Time (GMT-8) / Pacific Daylight Time (GMT-7)
PDT Begins on the 2nd Sunday in March – PST begins on the first Sunday in November.
Management
PRODUCTION OFFICES:
A small production office with a phone connection and a desk for the touring company’s production team is available backstage next to Dressing Room #1. A computer and printer/scanner/copier are available in this room. Direct (Ethernet) high-speed internet connection is also available. No phones are available in the dressing rooms. Secured wireless internet access is available in the house and onstage, but generally reception backstage is nonexistent. A regular full-size photocopier, fax machine, and additional office resources are available in the main offices – please ask our staff to assist you if you have any need to access the main office.
GREEN ROOM:
One floor down from the stage is the Green Room, which accommodates approximately 20. Cable television, couches and a microwave are available here for use by touring cast and crew as well as local staff. Please be aware that this space is also the access to the rehearsal room / second stage area and will be used by venue staff at all times. Depending on the parking/transportation setup this is usually the main artist’s entrance to the building once load-in has completed. The outside door to the Green Room is marked “THE SOURCE” as the Green Room doubles as the patron entrance for performances when the rehearsal room is set up as a second performance space.
DRESSING ROOMS:
See Attachment H for Dressing Room Plot
Six dressing rooms are available on two levels. Stage level dressing rooms include Dressing Rooms #1 and #2 with private bathroom (DR1 with a shower), which can accommodate 1-4 people, and Dressing Room #3, which can
accommodate 6-8 with a bathroom across the hall. One floor up from stage level is Dressing Rm. #4 (ensemble) for 16 or more and #5 and #6 can accommodate 4-5 each. Bathrooms are available at this level, across the hall. Two full-size rolling wardrobe racks are available; Dressing rooms 4, 5, and 6 all have small built-in wardrobe racks; other small wardrobe racks are also available. No shower facilities are available except in dressing room #1. A wardrobe room backstage right at stage level can also be curtained off and set up to function as a seventh
dressing room, accommodating an additional 8-10.
QUICK CHANGE:
Two quick-change booths with curtained entrances are available backstage at SR, accessible from the crossover hallway or the DSR wing.
STAGE MANAGERS CONSOLE:
Located Stage Right, DS. Video monitor can switch manually between IR and Color monitor. Backstage paging microphone, power outlets, house and work-light controls, and production intercom are all located here; a large (prompt-book-sized) podium is available for use. Backstage Page – Monitor / Production Intercom. Paging and program sound are available to all dressing rooms
and backstage areas, except for the loading dock and rehearsal room. When necessary, with advance notice paging and program sound as well as video monitoring can be provided in the rehearsal room.
REHEARSAL ROOM:
The Rehearsal Room downstairs is approximately the same size as the stage at 45’ (13.72m) wide by 28’ (8.54m) deep. It does have one support pillar in the middle of the room, slightly off-center. It is normally set up with numerous chairs and tables and serves as the cast and crew catering area for many performances, as well as doubling as a secondary performance space with a 12’ (3.7m) by 8’(2.8m) platform in one corner acting as the stage. As such, if it needs to be cleared for use as a rehearsal space, please contact PSM Gail Walls at least a week in advance of your show.
CREWS:
NON – UNION THEATRE:
The Admiral Theatre is a non-union theatre and does not employ members of
IATSE. All crews are trained professionals, not student or volunteer. Volunteers, Students, or Interns may supplement crews when possible, but will never be used to replace professional crewmembers unless previously arranged with touring company. Please contact TD Mark Thomason with any special requirements or questions.
HANDICAP STAGE ACCESS:
Wheelchair-accessible areas are limited and much of the backstage areas
involve numerous stairways. No regular method of reaching the stage exists without the use of at least some stairs. Handicap-accessible restrooms are available at stage level and at the level of the rehearsal room downstairs.
Please contact PSM Gail Walls to make any special arrangements.
POLICIES:
HOUSE OPEN –
2 Hours prior to show. Please be aware that the Admiral Theatre house policies are atypical. For many of our shows, we provide our patrons purchasing prime seats on the main floor to order a complete 3-course meal before the performance. In order to provide time to serve the meal and clear dishes before the performance starts, for these shows the house will open to the public 2 hours prior to the scheduled start time. Typically evening shows begin at 8pm and so
the house opens at 6pm. For all shows without a meal option, we provide a full bar and, for most shows, a variety of appetizers for our patrons to order. Again, in order to have dishes cleared and minimize the interference with the performance, for all events without a meal option, the house will open to the public 1 hour prior to the scheduled start time. As our bar is inside the house rather than in the lobby, even for shows without any food service, the house will still open at 1-hour prior to the show. As many of our patrons arrive early to enjoy the food and bar available, all stage setup and sound check must be complete by the scheduled house open time. Please account for this in your scheduling.
NO-SMOKING
There is no smoking allowed anywhere in the theatre. This policy applies to artists, members of their band and crew, the staff of the theatre and the audience. Smoking is permitted outside the facility only, and in accordance
with state law, should be a minimum of 25 feet (7.62m) away from all doors to any building. This is not only in compliance with the laws of the State of Washington, but is a necessary requirement as smoking in dressing rooms, restrooms and hallways will set off fire alarms in the entire building.
ALCOHOL POLICY
In order to conform to explicit WA state liquor license concerns, no outside alcohol is allowed in the building. A limited amount of alcohol can be provided backstage by our staff; for any additional needs please contact PSM Gail Walls or see the Stage Manager who can provide additional drinks from the house bar on request.
FOOD AND DRINKS ONSTAGE
Only water in a closeable plastic container is permitted on stage at any time. Other food and drinks are permitted in dressing rooms and other backstage areas. Once the house has opened please speak with the Stage Manager to
arrange any food or drink coming from front of house.
RECORDING OF SHOWS
No Audio/Video recording of any kind will be made except by prior arrangement in writing a minimum of 48 hours in advance of the show. All arrangements for audio or video recording must be made through the Technical Director. Absolutely NO FLASH PHOTOGRAPHY is allowed at any time. Non-flash photography is permitted at the discretion of the artist’s representative.
INTERMISSION
Any events lasting more than 75 minutes in length must have at least one 15-minute intermission. Any exceptions to this policy must be arranged in writing in advance of the day of the show. Any changes in the length or timing of
intermissions must be arranged with the Stage Manager and House Manager.
VENUE MANAGEMENT
In order to assure proper handling of emergency situations, the venue’s Stage Manager or Technical Director is required to be in direct communication with touring management staff during the show. Normally this means one headset must be reserved for venue management, though usually this person will also fulfill one of the crew duties. While touring management may have ultimate control of decisions affecting the performance, the venue Stage Manager will have final say in safety concerns and emergency response.
STAGE TO HOUSE ACCESS
Access directly from the stage to the house is available by permanently installed stairs on either side of the stage; it is requested that the Stage Manager be informed before the performance if the artist wishes to use the steps during the show. Additionally, once the house has opened, it is important that no one use this route to access backstage before or after the show; there is a cross-under route from the SL corner of the house under the stage to the backstage areas. This policy is actually a matter of security and safety; we have found that our patrons will follow performers or crew up on the stage if they see anyone using this route to get backstage. Also, under no circumstances will anyone be allowed to go around the grand drape on the outside edges, as this requires extremely unsafe maneuvering around installed sound, lighting, and rigging equipment, and reveals the entire fly rail area to the audience. Should access through a closed grand be required, it can be arranged to have a crewmember page the curtain at center stage.
STAGE ACCESS
It is requested that no performers or crew not dressed entirely in stage blacks walk out onto stage once the house has opened unless the grand curtain is closed. Should a performer need to access the stage, such as to place music
or retrieve an instrument or prop, please contact the Stage Manager who will have a crew person place or retrieve the necessary items. Artists walking on stage are usually noticed by the patrons, which can cause problems for the
house staff. Security varies depending on the event. Performances with higher security requirements will have all entrances to the entire backstage area controlled by Security staff who will be checking for venue or performer backstage
passes – please provide your crew industry-standard access passes or make arrangements in advance with the PSM for the Admiral Theatre to provide enough passes for your crew.
LOAD-IN Please download PDF version of this technical information for a visual representation of the loading dock layout.
There is no stage-level loading at the theatre. Load-in is accomplished from the back alley between 5th and 6th street through a 10’x10’ (3m x 3m) loading door into a staging area. The loading dock is not level with the alley, and varies (as the alley is sloped) from 12”-19” above immediate street level. A variety of options for loading include placing an 8’x8’ (2.4m x 2.4m) platform in the alley which is level with the loading area. There is also a ramp around the corner for rolling cases, but this route requires passing through a 2’-10.5” (0.87m) wide by 7’
(2.13m) high doorway. See drawing for more specifics. All gear must then be transferred through a 10’ (3m) wide by 8’ (2.4m) high 1” (2.6cm) doorway onto the
loading elevator (6000 lbs/2721kg weight limit) which is 12’ (3.65m) wide by 8’-4” (2.5m) deep by 12’ (3.65m) high. The elevator goes up to the backstage area where it can be ramped down a slight incline (10”/25cm drop) through an 11’-8” (3.5m) wide by 10’ (3m) high doorway to the stage at USL. Load-in to the house can be accomplished via the main entrance on Pacific through a 3’ (.9m) wide doorway, or up a short flight (4’/1.21m rise) of stairs through 5’ (1.52m) W x10’ (3m) H doors. Please contact TD Mark Thomason with any questions
or concerns about loading in your performance.

Upstage traveler maximum opening is 33’-6” (10.2m).
Wing Space: Varies dramatically, as stage walls angle in as they come upstage. At proscenium, wings are 10’ (4.6m) each side (assuming maximum opening of all curtains) while at mid-stage 8’ (2.4m)wide each side, and at upstage edge are 5’ (1.5m)wide. Upstage and midstage travelers are usually brought in a few feet to create slightly larger wings, limiting visible cyc area to about 30’ (9.1m)wide.

Orchestra Pit: Please see attachment L for Orchestra Layout
When open, the orchestra pit extends from under stage to 6’ (1.8m) beyond the apron edge at center. It normally accommodates 28-32 musicians. There is no elevator; the pit cover is created with custom Wenger platforms and typically requires 4 crew for about 2 hours to remove or reinstall. It does not usually require removal of seating though some adjustment is necessary.

VIDEO/FILM PROJECTION:
A Boxlight MP-41t digital video projector and a Christie 35mm film projector are both available at the theatre. The 35mm projector is permanently installed in the projection booth with all necessary gear to display 35mm films on the flown 20’(6m)high x 42’(12.8m)wide front projection screen. The digital projector can be configured to work with various media formats and can be set up at the FOH
Balcony Rail for front projection on the large screen, or backstage for Rear Projection on our 8’x10’ RP screen. The Boxlight projector can project various PAL and NTSC formats, has up to 800 horizontal lines and 1024x768 pixel resolution with both interlaced and progressive capabilities and projects 3500 ANSI lumens.
Throw ratio standard lens: 1.82-2.36. Short Zoom lens: 1.25-1.8.
VGA-over-Cat-5/6 system provides for video access points at Stage Right, FOH tech console, Projection Booth
and Balcony Rail. Video control locations can be at any of these locations with the projector at either Balcony
Rail or backstage.
Digital Video Hardware:
DVD Players
Digital Cable Television Box NTSC & HD capable
Component Video Switcher 4 inputs 2 outputs
Component/SVGA Video Converter
SVGA over Cat-5 cable extender
Portable DVD player for video monitor, composite input
Studio Video Monitor, composite input
Using the above equipment, our normal system takes multiple inputs including computer video and DVDs as well as (unscrambled) cable television signal through a switcher to select input device and into a SVGA over CAT-5 cable extender, allowing the playback system to be placed at FOH, in the projection booth, or backstage as needed, while the projector can remain at the FOH tech deck, backstage, or on the balcony rail as preferred.
Additionally, the Selecon Pacific Zoom lighting instruments have an air-cooled radiator, which keeps the gate cool, and can be used to project templates produced as easily as using an inkjet printer on overhead projector pages. Full-color personalized patterns can easily be inserted into these instruments and used for projecting onto any surface. Low contrast images only.
