Taboos in the Theater Industry | Event Organization

1. Taboos in the theater industry

Below are taboos in the theater industry that anyone working in the industry needs to know:

It is forbidden to wear clogs on stage: The Vong tree is used to carve statues and make bones of ancestors. Therefore, artists are not allowed to wear clogs on stage because this is considered disrespectful to the ancestors of the profession.

Do not bring star fruit into the dressing room: The smell of star fruit will distract the artist.

Avoid giving money to beggars: It is said that the singing profession and beggars share the same ancestor. Therefore, artists avoid giving money because they think that people from the same ancestor should not give alms to each other. They can ask other people or buy food to give but do not give small change.

Do not let children sit on or kick the costume chest: In the old days, the troupes would carry a lot of costume chests and accessories. When the troupe stopped, the medicine chests were brought out in a row. That was also where the artists sat to put on makeup before going on stage.

No joking around in the dressing room: During the backstage dressing time, you must be quiet, no laughing, vulgar language, or joking around, otherwise you will be punished by the crew. This is also a valid reason because artists need to concentrate on their roles before going on stage to perform.

Do not touch the drum when not performing: After the performer has finished performing, the drum is not allowed to be touched. Legend has it that the “Drum” is a part of the Ancestor’s body, so after the performance, it must be returned to him.

Don't compliment your colleagues on their beautiful makeup: This is a taboo for artists when applying makeup. They are not allowed to compliment this or that person on their beautiful makeup. If complimented, artists will remove their makeup, apply makeup, and reapply it from the beginning.

Do not drink sugarcane juice, eat balut, watermelon, bananas, eat corn, or talk about rain… before going on stage.

2. Taboos in event organization

• Avoid choosing bad days and bad hours.

You should check the date and time of the event to avoid conflicting or inappropriate days according to feng shui.

For important events such as openings, groundbreakings, weddings, etc., you should consult feng shui experts.

• Rough budgeting and planning

Poor budgeting and planning for an event can have many negative consequences, affecting the success of the event and causing financial and reputational damage. Before organizing an event, you need to plan in detail:

Detailed planning: Take the time to create a detailed plan for the event, including goals, audience, time, location, budget, work items, task assignments, schedule, backup plans, etc.

Estimate costs carefully: Research the market, contact suppliers, make detailed estimates for each item, calculate additional costs and contingencies.

Seek support: If you have no experience, seek support from event planning professionals or experienced people. Or come up with possible backup plans.

• Not focusing on customer service

Welcoming guests is a very important part, showing professionalism and respect for customers.

Always check the guest list regularly and be welcoming to all guests.
