(There will be a BCT staff member there directing you.)

STEP 3: WHAT TO EXPECT UPON ARRIVAL
There will be BCT staff members who will get on your bus and give you explicit directions so please stay on until dismissed. Ushers will
show you to your seats and we ask that you have your students walk in single file lines, quickly and quietly, as we have lots of groups to get seated. Do not skip chairs so we don’t have a bottle neck in the lobby and the entrances to the theatre.
