How to Zoom

Hello brave internet adventurer and welcome to wonderful world of Zoom Webinars. To access our online events we recommend that you give yourself at least 15 minutes before the meeting begins to make sure you’re all set up and ready to go.

Zoom App

If you have not received a link for a event you have registered for please contact our ticketing team at sales@queenslandtheatre.com.au.


Things that you will need:
- a device: computer, phone, tablet etc that has an internet or wifi connection
- an email account
- your beautiful self.

Web cams or microphone are not necessary for our webinars. Everyone will however have access to a group chat feature. We ask that you use this feature with respect throughout the event. In the words of your school principal “inappropriate language will not be tolerated”.

If you’d like to ask a question, you can do so in this chat feature. Steps for accessing the chat feature are included below. It's also important to keep in mind that this is a free application and at no point should you need to put in your credit card details.
