Panel Guests or Performers
I would like to be a panel guest or performer on "NightTime", who do I contact?

First of all, please visit the GUEST BOOKING page. It has "almost" all the information that you need to know. Please do this BEFORE calling Don & Teri Stroud. As you may have questions, the GUEST BOOKING link will have most of your answers. Plus, you don't cut into the Mai Tai time of the Strouds by wasting their time having them answer stuff that you could easily look up. Can do? If so, then visit the CONTACT US page and get a hold of Don & Teri Stroud.

Audience
I want to be part of the audience, how much do the tickets cost?

The show is FREE, you pay nothing to watch.

What day & times do you tape the show?

Currently, we are filming every Monday. There are 5 (FIVE) shows shot in one day. The first show is at 1pm, 2nd at 2pm, and 3rd at 3pm. The crew then has a dinner break and we continue with the 4th show at 6pm and 5th (LAST) show at 7pm. We do our best to stick to the schedule. However, from time to time there may be delays, and that's expected.

Where is the show located?

The Outrigger Waikiki at 2335 Kalakaua Avenue is the home to "NightTime" with Andy Bumatai. Our show is filmed in the Main Showroom. View map to the Outrigger and surrounding area.

Where do I park?

Parking is available for a nominal fee. Please park at the Ohana East Hotel on 150 Kuhio Avenue and walk through the International Marketplace, which will put you just across the street from the Outrigger Waikiki. You can get your ticket validated by purchasing a beverage at Chuck's Restaurant or Duke's Canoe House. The ticket will be good for 3 hours.

 

We DO NOT cover VALET parking. DO NOT Valet park unless you wish to cover the cost on your own. YOU WILL BE RESPONSIBLE for any valet parking.

What happens when I get there?

As part of the show audience, we will direct you to sit primarily in the cheering section. Although not required, your applause and laughter greatly help the overall production of the show. Clap loud, cheer louder. When the tape is rolling, everyone is asked to stay in their seats until the tape stops. Also, no unecessary talking. The Floor Manager will prompt you when to applause, laugh, or be silent.

Can I take pictures?

Absolutely! However, NO FLASH photography while the tape is rolling. If you wish to get a picture with Andy or any of the guests, all you have to do is ask. The Webmaster (ME...a.k.a. "Hawaiian Superman") is usually on every set, seek him to assist in getting your photo(s).

Can I bring my own food and drinks?

You may bring whatever, as long as it is not moving and cooked. Alcohol is also welcomed provided you purchase your beverage at Chuck's Restaurant (adjacent to the Main Showroom).

I see a sign over the food & drinks that says "For Crew/Staff Only"...Can I sample?

NO!  Expect a beating if that ever happens.

I have a baby that cries. Are they allowed on the set?

Although Andy, the staff & crew love babies, having one on set that cries will only waste our valuable time during taping...most certainly will skyrocket our production costs should they interrupt and we have to re-shoot.

I'm already in the audience and will be expecting a very important call..can I answer it?

If the call is that important...what are you doing at the taping of "NightTime"? Get back to work!! All cell phones MUST BE OFF! No sense that you have it on vibrate, you won't be allowed to answer it. Realistically, you CAN put it on vibrate or silent...just don't answer it while the tape is rolling. Please see reprimand for Crew/Staff food sampling.
