Stage sets and other furnishings

The porter will open the loading door next to the main entrance allowing easy access for bulky items directly onto the stage.
We strongly recommend that productions bringing exceptionally large equipment, which need to be transported by a truck or lorry, obtain a parking permit for spaces in front of the loading doors from the Helsinki Public Works Department well in advance.
Parking permits and instructions are available here

Check-in and check-out times

The auditorium is at the production’s use for the agreed time.  If your timings changes, please notify the Savoy Theatre producer or production coordinator as soon as possible, so that we can be ready on site on your arrival.

The stage sets and props must be dismantled directly after the show unless otherwise agreed in advance.
