Parties in the SLT Bar

The SLT Members' Club Bar is available as a venue for social events and parties, strictly by prior arrangement with the Bar Committee. In particular, show directors should seek advance permission to hold an after-show party from the Members' Club as a matter of courtesy.

Importantly, an individual or individuals should be nominated as responsible for making sure that the following 'Protocols' are adhered to. The bar is licensed until 2am; therefore, a finishing time should be decided upon and stuck to as far as possible.

Protocols for after-show parties

Cashing up and cleaning

Please ensure that:

1. After the regular bar staff have left, the nominated responsible individual(s) work behind the bar - or organise a rota for doing so. Please note that bar prices remain as advertised, and that the nominated individual is reponsible for cashing up the till once the bar is closed.
2. No food or personal belongings (for your show people) are left in the Green Room.
3. All bar furniture is clean and left in its normal position at the end of the night.
