Stop Settling for "Good Enough" Ticketing:

See How DRT Outperforms the Competition (Especially for DANCE Studios!)

Dance Performance

Running a dance studio is hard enough. Don't let your ticketing system add to the stress!

Generic ticketing platforms just don't get the unique needs of dance recitals.

You deserve a ticketing partner that understands dance studios inside and out, not just a platform built for any event.

See how DRT – the only ticketing platform truly built for dance – stacks up against typical competitors and why serious studios are making the switch:

		Other "Dance Ticketing" Options
Customer Service	Your Studio's Back Office: Real humans answer the phone! (Call Daniel: 706-742-6212). Fast email responses. We’re reachable, available, and we care.	Limited Support and slow response times, Especially Post-Acquisition: Known for poor customer service. Hard to reach. Smaller clients can feel abandoned, especially after Etix acquisition.
Customization & Branding	Your Brand, Front & Center: Fully branded ticket sales experience, and hundreds of prebuilt themes, customizable to match your studio's look and feel. Professional and polished.	Basic Branding, But Limited: May offer some basic branding, but often still looks and feels limited. Less control over the overall experience.
Functionality & Tech	Built for Dance Recital Demands: Better functionality and scale to handle peak traffic. Accurate, functional seating charts with stage. Dancer roster lookup. Reliable tech that works.	Functionality Gaps: May lack key features needed for dance recitals. Seating charts can be basic. Limited customization options to handle unique use cases.
Studio-Specific Features	Features You Actually Need: Roster integration, Credit Performer tracking, Tuition Control/Early Access, Recital Packages, Add-on sales (DVDs, swag). We speak your language.	May Lack Key Dance Studio Features: Often missing specialized features like detailed roster management, performer crediting, or robust tuition integration. Limited in scope.
Partnership Approach	We're Your Partner in Success: Deeply partner for your studio’s success. We believe in taking care of dance families as much as you do. We're invested in your revenue and your reputation.	Bully Approach, Especially to Smaller Clients: Known for a "bully approach." Unprofessional presence. Prioritizes larger clients. Can abandon smaller studios.
Ease of Use	"Studio-Owner-Proof" & Easy: Intuitive and user-friendly platform. Easy to set up and manage, even for "novices." Reduces your admin burden.	Difficult or Clunky to Use: Can be difficult to navigate and set up. Poor UX leads to frustration and errors. Not designed for ease of use for busy studio owners.
Security & Privacy	Leading Security & Privacy: Protecting the identity of kids and performers is a top priority. Robust security measures. Peace of mind for you and your dance families.	Security Concerns: Especially with smaller or outdated platforms, security can be a major concern. May not have robust systems in place to protect data.
Revenue Focus	Built to Boost Your Revenue: Revenue protection features. Add-on sales. Recital packages. Discounts & coupons. We help you maximize your recital income.	Limited Revenue Tools: May lack robust features for upselling, packages, or maximizing revenue beyond basic ticket sales. Missed opportunities for revenue growth.
DANCE FEATURE: Seating Charts	Dance-Specific Seating Charts: Accurate seating charts with the stage clearly marked. Visually intuitive for dance parents. Reduces seating confusion and parent questions.	Basic Seating Charts, May Lack Stage: Seating charts may be very basic, and often don't include a stage, making seat selection difficult for dance recitals.
DANCE FEATURE: Roster Integration	Built-in Roster Feature: Easily link dancers to specific shows. Name-searchable show listings for parents. Eliminates "Which show is my kid in?" headaches. Unique to DRT.	Limited Roster Functionality: May have very basic roster options, but likely not designed for easy parent lookup or clear show assignments linked to dancers.
DANCE FEATURE: Performer Credit	"Credit Performer" Tracking: Understand who audiences are coming to see. Run class contests. Track family ticket purchases. Valuable data for studio growth. Rare feature.	Likely No Performer Credit: Highly unlikely to have a feature like "Credit Performer" – this is a very specialized feature not found in generic platforms.
DANCE FEATURE: Tuition Control/Early Access	Tuition Control & Early Access: Reward paid tuition families with early access. Grant priority access to staff/volunteers. Control who can buy tickets and when.	Limited Access Control: May have very basic access control, but unlikely to be linked to studio-specific criteria like tuition payment or dancer status.
