Every organization deserves a home online — even without a web developer on staff.

OTS Org Site gives you a professional home page built right into your OTS account, connected directly to your box office. No separate platform to manage, no code to write.

Just a place for your audience to find your season, your story, and your tickets, all in one spot.

Every venue is shaped a little differently. Round tables that need to face the stage. A general admission floor in front of reserved seating. A dinner theater where "the room" means far more than rows and seats.

We rebuilt seating charts at On The Stage for exactly that. 🎭

Here's what's new:
🪑 A drag-and-drop editor with support for curved rows, tables, booths, GA zones of any shape, and on-stage seating — plus callouts for things like columns, exits, and AV equipment, so your chart shows the whole room
📍 A dedicated Venue Management section, so you build a room once and reuse it show after show
🎟️ Custom hold types for house seats, board seats, press comps, and donor seats — with expirations that release unused held seats automatically
✏️ Make changes to a chart that's already on sale, with sold seats protected and a full preview of affected performances and seats before you apply anything

All of these features and more are available now to all OTS customers. Get the full rundown here: https://hubs.la/Q04ttwKW0

Great marketing shouldn't depend on having a designer on staff.

OTS's Production Artwork catalog gives you ready-made poster and merchandise designs for 200+ well-known plays and musicals. If the artwork you love needs your show's exact title, our team will customize it for a flat $50 managed service fee — no design software required on your end.

Look sharp on opening night, without the DIY scramble.

Redeeming a subscription shouldn't take longer than the walk to your seat.

In OTS, redeem subscriptions right from the Subscriptions tab — it's faster than going through the standard box office flow because it takes you straight into the subscriber's portal. Less time at the window, shorter lines, happier patrons.

The numbers back it up: redeeming a subscription in OTS takes just 7 clicks, compared to 21 on other platforms.

Got a packed calendar? Now your audience can see it all at a glance.

Gallery view shows every upcoming event — poster and all — in one place, so your audience never misses a show. Pair it with multi-event checkout, and it's never been easier for them to grab tickets to multiple shows in a single transaction. Less friction = more sales = fuller houses.

Selling to groups shouldn't mean extra spreadsheets.

With group discounts, you set a minimum number of tickets for any ticket type and the discount applies automatically when patrons check out — no promo codes to distribute, no manual approvals.

Whether it's a school field trip, a group of season subscribers, or a table of ten for opening night, the savings show up right in the cart.

Less time on admin, more time filling seats.
