Need help choosing the right space?

Most productions at Green Relish begin on the Main Stage, but we can tailor a package to fit your budget by combining multiple areas of the studio — using the kitchen for prep, the meeting space for planning sessions, or the office for production coordination.

If you're not sure which space fits your production, we’re happy to help.
