"Anole makes it so easy to update our site. Since our information is up-to-date, more of our patrons, staff and volunteers visit our web site more frequently. Anole for our theater has helped us reach a new market and easily accommodate more patrons than we ever could have before switching over." - Rachel Peacock-Young Springfield Little Theatre (Marketing Director)	"It's so easy to update our schedule and keep our audience informed.

Launch your Theatre Web Site Affordably

Businesses are commonly paying thousands and thousands of dollars for web sites in today's market. It is also possible to find cheap solutions out there, but who wants cheap? This sums up the quandary most small theater and live perfomance groups find as they budget and plan to launch their startup. "Do I empty the coffer for quality or should I pinch my way to a measly theater web presence?"

Pinch your way to Quality!

You can avoid painting yourself into a corner by using Anole because you can always upgrade to a package with more features later. And by upgrade, I mean, without starting over. As your theater grows, as your site visitors demand, and as your promotional and marketing plan calls for more... just tell Anole that you need more. In the meantime, spend what you can for a quality performing arts venue solution that lets you keep your content up to date and looking sharp.

Anole Theater CMS Features

Here's what Anole can bring to your theater!

Theater Content

Anole is built for content! It's easy to add new pages, delete old or unused ones and even reorganize the way the pages display on the site. Delivering your content in a blog-style format, Anole allows users to quickly adjust to the layout of your site and find the information they're looking for. Your pre-built site map includes pages for theater history, theater news and updates, theater parking, theater seating and even press releases. You can also upload and insert pictures, YouTube videos, Google videos or links to other pages and files in your site. You decide what content appears!

Simple Administration Panels Here's a screenshot of the administration panel used to create the page you're reading right now! From paragraphs to tables to images, Anole has your theater covered! It's as easy as editing a Word™ document! (Sometimes, even easier!) And if you're code-savvy, you can even edit the HTML to get exactly what you need! But you don't need to know any code at all to use Anole!

Theater Events Calendar

Anole's events calendar helps keep your theater schedule organized while providing your site visitors with accurate schedule and show information. Organize your events and theater showtimes and display additional updates and contact information.

Display your events by day, by week, by year, or category. As an added feature, Anole can also deploy an AnoleCalendar module that will provide an automatic front-page display of upcoming events to grab the browsing user's attention, or a small calendar to quickly navigate to a specific day's or month's events.

Performance Image/Photo Gallery

A photo gallery with a CMS? Anole is equipped with a gallery that allows you to upload your own photos and images, as well as organize them into separate categories as you see fit. Set up your own online gallery to chronicle your epic performances! ...or maybe just to make fun of the guy who fell down during his monologue...

AnoleGallery provides a simple image upload process for single image files, as well as multiple image zip files. Images are categorized and descriptions can be added as needed. Thumbnails are generated automatically and if necessary, watermarks may be added to personalize or protect your images. Options to upload custom thumbnails are also available. Getting your theater images up on the web was never simpler!
