          | Hi everyone!  Our theatre is moving into a new theatre in the heart of downtown Stamford, CT.  We're losing our "on-site" parking because of this.  I want to make the parking situation very easy for our patrons.  I was wondering if any of you guys have similar situations, or any tips you can give me to help with this.  Do you any of you offer perks, or discounts or even free parking to subscribers in garages or lots?  I've contacted the area's major parking garage company, but in the mean time I wanted to get some feedback from theatre people.  Thanks guys! |

          | How about making a deal with a limo service and have your patrons get a package deal with tickets and a ride in style to the show.   Could make for a fun evening.

          | One of our theatres is next door to a parking garage.  I don't know the specifics, but for some kind of fee, the garage allows theatre volunteers and patrons to park free on weekends and evenings (when they'd be pretty much empty anyway).
