A number of factors determine rates at Where Eagles Dare:
There are 3 rates that depend on time of day:
Where Eagles Dare is committed to supporting the lower echelon of theatrical users, namely Off-Off-Broadway. The non-profit rate applies to rehearsals for Equity showcases or non-union plays of equivalent budget, as well as to teachers. Commercial producers (paying union scale) pay the commercial rate. Peak and off-peak rates apply to both non-profit and commercial users. The off-peak commercial rate is the same as the peak non-profit rate.
As previously mentioned, classes and Off-Off-Broadway rehearsals pay the non-profit rate. Just about every other kind of use merits the commercial rate: shoots, auditions, and rehearsals for commercial productions.
There is a bulk discount for non-profit producers who book 100 off-peak hours or more. These are shows that typically rehearse 40 hours a week between the hours of 10 am and 5 pm. (The hour from 5 - 6 pm is charged at the peak rate and doesn't count toward the 100-hr. minimum.)
