The Frisco Arts

Theater The Frisco Arts Theater Ticket Office keeps track of patrons, productions, performances, and seats. The Frisco Arts Theater likes to keep track of their patrons, so they can notify them of upcoming events, and identify those who frequently support the theatre. Information kept on patrons include first and last name, street address, city state, zip code, cell number, and email address. For the purposes of a computerized system, a unique patron number will need to be created.

With regard to productions, the Frisco Arts Theater maintains information on the name and type of the production, such as play or concert. With respect to performances, the theatre tracks the date of the performance and whether it is a matinee or evening performance. A production can, and usually does, have multiple performances, and can have both a matinee and evening performance on the same date.

When patron calls or stops by to reserve a ticket, their name, address, and contract information is recorded, if they are not already in the files. The patron can then select the performance, including the date and whether it is matinee or evening. The patron then selects their seats from those available for a particular performance. The ticket thus identifies a specific seat or a specific performance.

Appropriate and user-friendly data entry/edit screens need to be created to enter and edit information for patrons and performances, as well as ticket sales for a specified seat selection. The system should generate a report of seats sold or available for a particular performance, and should be able to show the seats purchased by a patron (based on name or patron number) for a specific performance.

Extra: In essence, what the Frisco Arts Theater really needed was a database system which would maintain information about each event and tickets sold, and the patron to whom the tickets are sold.

The system should also generate reports on the number of tickets sold/available per performance, and tickets purchased by a specific patron.
