Theaters and live venues that count on Ares.
What usually goes wrong at the door.
The officer at your door has never seen your house.
Every officer gets a Know Before You Go brief for your venue, with your posts, doors and who's who, before their first show.
Doors open and the bag line backs up past curtain.
We staff screening to your capacity and your doors-open time, so the house fills on schedule.
A call-out at 6 PM becomes your problem.
If an officer can't make it, our operations desk finds the replacement and tells you who's coming. You don't chase anyone.
Everything front of house needs, from one team.
From request to officers on post.
Production and venue teams, in their words.
"Your officer has been incredibly helpful, not only in fulfilling his security duties but also in assisting our staff with setup whenever possible. I wanted to take a moment to let you know how impressed we are with his performance."
Manager, Production and Theatre
"As always, thank you for coming through yet again. The presence of your team made a bigger difference than we could have imagined."
Manager, Production and Theatre
"I can't thank you enough for your guidance during our recent challenges. Your suggestions have been invaluable, and our leadership team is already working to implement them to enhance venue safety."
Director, High-Profile Venue
