Theatre, Plays, Opera or Symphony

Any MSC has these types of assignments/shops?

I know one MSC shops the concession station at a world renowned Symphony/Philharmonic.

Slightly similar: Certified was doing evaluation shops of Saturday afternoon opera broadcasts in movie theaters. Maybe they will do them again.
Hollywood Bowl was done, haven't seen it for awhile, but haven't been looking. i do museums from time to time, lunch and a fun day.

Live consciously....
Shoppers Critique, now merged with Reality Based Group, had mystery shops with Theater, Plays, opera, and symphony.
I had a smaller local company mention they had music venue shops. Expecting large venues with classical or well known bands I asked about them and found them mostly to be the packed like a sardine can, louder than loud music with multiple bars type smaller locations. And the purchase required 6 drinks (for 2 people). My experience in those sorts of places is that the bar is so close to the music it is difficult to hear the bartender...I would not mind that at all if I did not have to report what the bartender actually said.
@sandyf, I did one of those large venues on Thursday. It's a great shop if it's an artist you want to see and you are a drinker, but the security protocols in this day & age are starting to make the large venues undesirable to go to. It was over a 1-hour wait to got through the magnetometers and into the show...but I guess that's why they are being shopped.

I've been requesting earplugs on my recent hotel shops in preparation for the concert assignments. Most of the discussion with the bar staff are in mime. It's kinda like Charades. Luckily I drink Kettle One and not Wild Turkey smiling smiley

Wonderful. Why don't you share that with the others?

I did one I really enjoyed before the House of Blues closed down here in L.A. I did have to order food from the bar in addition to a drink. I think I was the first person ever to order off the bar menu and it took forever to arrive from the kitchen.. Fortunately the bar with appetizer visit was before the concert started so I could actually hear the bartender ask if I wanted food.
