Take a Walk Through the VPAC

Dressing Rooms

The dressing rooms are located directly next to the stage area, allowing easy access to and from. A single hallway connects the green room, stage, dressing rooms, and loading dock.
Green Room

Tables and chairs can be setup at your leisure along with approved decorations. The lobby has a capacity for 100 people and also serves as an overflow area for the theater with a monitor that live streams the stage.
